Yippee!! It’s like being reunited with long lost friends!!

@robin Hi Robin, the laser cut holes don’t taper all that much, it’s just that you have a lesser degree of contact between the pin and the wall of the hole. As I said, if someone wants to sit and…   Read more»

@tv1010101 Good morning TV. Glad you like it! I guess I will sell it through my website but if Mark wants to put it in his shop then I am sure that this can be arranged. I’m going to send…   Read more»

@jonhodgson I intend to have at least one other template with uke scale lengths etc but there is nothing to stop someone making their own. Any CNC or engineering grade drilling/milling machine will easily be capable of the necessary accuracy….   Read more»

Oh!!! It seems that ALL previous forum posts have had all of their images stripped out. This is not so good!! Are they likely to reappear or are they gone for good? That is one huge catalogue of build records…   Read more»

Yup, all previous photos gone. Not a huge issue as they had all been posted. Hopefully they are still visible in the posts.

@jamesbisset Hi James, I’m happy to contribute any loan equipment you may need to give this a go and if you can draw/model the mould then I am more than happy to machine it for you on the CNC router…   Read more»

@eddie6string I’m glad you enjoyed the videos, they were great fun to make. If you can post a photo of the pump I’ll let you know what I think. 250W isn’t an especially big vacuum pump and, so long as…   Read more»

@rocknroller912 Two experts with different opinions? No! You’re shitting me!! You want to try dealing with hifi speaker designers. I must have dealt with more than 20 in the last couple of decades and they all had completely different ideas,…   Read more»
