We could test the DFM out by some of us trying a community design and build. Lockdown LooseyTwo @Boo?

Shared spaces sound great it's a pity we all live so far away from each other. There are various "shared space" initiatives around the country. They're not intended specifically for guitar makers, b...

However, I do love Boo’s idea of pooling resources and opening a factory. This kind of thing has been bouncing around in my head for years and there are now some really well equipped shared, ‘hire spa...

Do you think we would make any money? I'm reminded of the jokeQ : "How do you make a million in the music business?" A : "Start with two" On a more serious note I'm trying to get something happeni...

Hi Rocknroller, I’m sorry to hear to that you have been under recent medical care and I hope that you make speedy recovery. Take care and get well soon. Cheers Darren

@darrenking Sorry to be a wet blanket it must be all the drugs the hospital have been pumping in to me the last few days affecting my thinking. Your design looks very good and I think it will fly off ...

A two pack system just means that you have to mix two components before spraying, it doesn’t automatically mean that the finishes are hugely toxic. The main issue with 2 pack PU finishes is that the p...

Hi Mikey, I understand your comment about the length of shaft. I going to have three prototype shafts made @ 500mm, 550mm and 600mm so I can assess the difference . The longer the shaft then the more ...

Hi Robin, Thank you for your comments. Yes, the two grub screws in the shaft locate in the motor shaft keyway and there are also two grub screws in the bearing sleeve that also secure the shaft. I int...

Blimey Rocknroller! In words of Jack Dee you’re a real old ray of sleet!😂😂 I do just feel the need to point out that I’m currently NOT up for designing a low cost 48” diameter automati...

What the...? Did I forget to include the link for the vid of Dan and the buffer? What am I, an idiot? Wait, don’t answer that...

@boo With all our pooled resources I'm sure we could build a monster Ark big enough for all the Bailey community. As for money I've always found that if you're good enough at what you do then work flo...

@boo I was reading your earlier comment about poly finishes on guitars and did some web research as it's something I've often wondered myself. It's seems that big firms used a two pack system which yo...

Just to depress everyone this is how big factories do polishing, no people input. The arm uses suction and is computer controlled. Probably even a machine for loading and removing the bodies in and ou...

@steveadms Looks very good what did you use to finish the body

I finally replied to your email Matt. 🤣 @boo Yeah I saw that, thanks! But I figure that if you can wait weeks to reply, so can I! 😆😆😆

though @boo still liked it 😆 😆 @tv101 There, I liked it too 😉

@tv101 I did but a point is a point. Ahhh - true @Boo - I hadn't considered that. I'll go to the secret points store to top mine up again sometime. 😉

Great guitar, well done!

Sorry I missed this stream live, but now watched it and it was one of the best yet! How you dare do that live is a mystery, well done Mark, it was a great show, you guys are great. I am just annoyed I...
