@liebe Hey Dan This is Carol now on Marks page 😉 NO offence taken at all - we know we have been absent, and it is shame indeed ... BUT we are finally making our way back up to where we were ... and ...

Built this one a while agao, first carve top. Had a few things i wasm't happy with, floyd sat above the body, recess wasn't nicely lined up and the finish was kinda sticky. I thought lets improive it....

Got the neck pocket sorted, managede to rout a small angle in it too so I can keep the fretboard lower while still having enough height at the bridge. Also shaped the body at the pocket. Going to knoc...

@nsj Your fret marker fix is pure genius, I like it.

Bit more progress, bridge fitted, pickup and control cavities done, headstock done and control cavity cover. Attachment : 20240411_145816.jpg Attachment : 1000028878-01.jpg Attachme...

Smoothed off the sharp edges and started the finishing Attachment : 20240414_133005.jpg Attachment : 20240414_133012.jpg Attachment : 20240414_133351.jpg Attachment : 202404...

Got the fret markers in, frets and side dots. Only then did I realise I'd put markers on the 25th fret instead of the 24th lol. I knew something was off when I was doing it too. Anyway I got on and ...

@nsj Nice work Neil. I'm going to look into getting one of those radian surfacing bits. 👍 🎶🙂🎸🙏

Started another bass guitar, friends kid bought the last one so I need another, obviously lol Brazillian mahogany with yew and resin top. Neck is maple with brazillian mahogany up the centre and som...

I've finally got myself back out to my shed too, also building a bass. Since we've had the heating installed I'm more reluctant to go out to the shed in crap weather lol

So after a long winter break I've returned to my little shed to work a little on the bass again. Routed the neck pocket and drilled some holes. Attachment : IMG_9559.jpg Attachment : IMG_95...

I'm enjoying playing my acoustic, it feels so comfortable, I think I've got the body size just right for me. There's just one wee niggle. I've put the strap button in the middle of the heal and with i...

Thanks Mark, that means a lot. The trouble is, all the effort in making the molds, templates, jigs and solera........all the fidling about trying to make the nut, saddle and bridge from scratch.... al...

This is my first ukelele - I made it from offcuts from a a hard flooring company near me and as such, was able to make a shed load of inexpensive mistakes in the course of my learning. I invested in ...

Absolutely gorgeous - great plan! You'll probably find guitars much easier now after that - I did anyway. I found ukes to be a lesson in humility myself as they are much smaller and very much fiddlier...

Thats the neck/body joint done, fretboard glued, the neck carved and dry fitted. Doesn't sound much when you say it quickly, but its certainly a challenge getting the neck/body joint without gaps, on...

The X braces are glued on now, one at a time, I won't carve them yet, wait until I'm ready for assembly. The repaired split in the soundboard isn't quite invisible but it isn't obvious either, so I'll...

@russ will be, waiting on the fretboard and truss rod to do more filming first

@nsj Under starters orders again Neil. Looking forward to this one. Is there a wee YouTube video? 🙏🙂🎸🎶

Got myself more wood, Brazillian mahogany, Northern Ash and some more yew. Aiming for neck through with a yew top. So far I got the neck blank sorted, waiting on stuff before I can go further so got o...
