I'm not very happy with the intonation on this build, I should have angled the bridge a bit more. The A string is still a bit sharp with the bridge adjusted as far as it will go. If I tried thicker st...

Well that's the body blank all glued up! Needed a few clamps due to the nature of wonky oak lol. I often find with anything spalty or that it needs a few extra clamps but once glued to a stable body i...

@swepri I get bored and restless lol

@tv101 but only one at a time instead of batches lol

That top looks great! As @tv101 said, amazing speed in your workshop. 🙂

Some nice grain pattern on that top 👍 You realise that you're making these quicker than some "professional" guitar builders???

Well, my latest is sitting curing with a number of coats of hard wax oil on it so thought I'd start my next build. It's also going to be a carve top, gibson scale length, 24.75 inches, 22 fret, tune o...

Good! Getting started is the hard part. 🙂

Thanks all for the words of encouragement, much appreciated. Forgot to mention that, of course, I was wearing my dust mask and my dust extraction system has trapped all that future value dust!!!£££&#x...

Hope you've kept that ... in years to come, could be worth a fortune to collectors 😆

Good job @brie keep it up you are doing nice!

@brie A good start, my favourite headstock style.

@jamesbisset On another build, I’d be tempted to try the two internal layers at 30°-45° and 315°-330°. But I haven’t really thought through the implications of that. I've seen ply laminated dinghy ...

@tv101 🤣 😆 😉

@poco7 It was not from a plan. I actually just used the radius template that I made on the course and copied the arch on the long rails. I just cobbled the rest of the jig together from scraps. As lon...

That router jig you've made...is that from a plan you've picked up somewhere, or did you just create it? Looks like you could have the inner 'sleds' set with removable sides for various radii? just s...

Well... I thunk it's time to start another build. I just had some parts come in. Not everything I need yet but most if it. Just want to let it sit in my shop for a bit before starting the project to l...

@tv101 yeh but I'm handy too! 🤣

You have some handy mates up there @nsj!
