Posted by: @rocknroller912 I’ve been working in an unseated garage for nearly 40 years so have learned everything the hard way. @rocknroller912 Surely you could just buy or make a stool or chair? &#...

Posted by: @rocknroller912 I don’t feel so bad now I know that even professional painters get crazy paving sometimes. It happened to me during the summer when I was giving my lathe a re spray. Had to...

Posted by: @bpower Very interesting. I'm not a painter but want to eventually do this sort of thing. I didn't even know this could happen. It is unfortunate but very helpful for someone like me to s...

Posted by: @tej that’s a good system, annoyingly one that never occurred to me before! @tej Yeah it took me a while to figure it out. Ask me how I know. 🤣👍

@tej Also, like I said earlier, put a small amount of bees wax on the thread of each screw. Doing this lubricates and eases the action of putting the screw in, it helps take strain off the screw. If t...

Posted by: @tej Didn’t use power tools, just not used to hard woods and used an incompetently small pilot, clearly not the strongest of screws either mind 🙂 @tej My rule of thumb: whatever s...

Posted by: @rocknroller912 Looks like you’ve had a life time supply of bad luck all in one build @rocknroller912 I can honestly say I every mistake has been down to trying to rush something when I s...

Hello Peeps, It's been a long slow journey with many hurdles to get over........one of them being no space to build in. I've been on this Forum for over a year now..... still no guitar wood cut. The ...

@russ Love it, are you tooled up so to speak or do you need to go shopping before you can start the build? Have you designed what you plan to make, I don’t recall seeing any plans?

@russ one other thing please make sure there is ventilation in the shed so you don’t get trouble with damp and mould?

@russ Wow! Big news and a big step forward. You’re getting closer Russ, it looks great. 👍

Some more fancy back masking and it’s now ready for primer, again! Attachment : 1A592D98-FE62-499F-A348-EB693600061E.jpeg Attachment : 67D90A9A-7862-43B9-AD14-BD588BC8E6AF.jpeg Attac...

There is an easy way to get broken screws out @rocknroller912 Worked a treat, Mark suggested the same. If you overlook where the finish is a bit destroyed where I had to twist the pickup mount off it...

Simple little amp - I really only made it to practice my soldering skills. Mini-toggle is a grit-switch (more, or less), following by tone, gain and volume. Drives pretty much any speaker. Sounds p...

I sanded it back today and some spots needed some more filler, just a very thin skim. When this is dry I’ll sand it flat and then mask up for more primer. Attachment : 93690198-3021-4C88-962A-F69...

Back atcha @tej - It is a simple fact that without you and the others none of this would exist. So thanks to you and everyone else here!!

If I understand this correctly you have a 15.75" fretboard and want to press the frets in. A 16" caul will be slightly flatter and press more in the centre leaving the ends slightly high. This could b...
