tv101 Thanks still don't really know what it was but it looked a bit like sepsis starting to take hold. Everybody was calling in to have a look see something unexplained. Nobody said not to drink Guin...

in the operating theatre Ok, something that required a trip to the Operating Theatre qualifies as “serious”. Whatever it was, take it easy and let the healing process do it’s thing. And don’t do it a...

@darrenking @mattbeels Thanks for the good wishes I've found that I can do varnishing ok so working on non guitar projects. Just have to be careful not to burst any stitches or get any solvent near as...

Thanks I had to get an operation on my hand, nothing woodwork related but it was a minor emergency. I'm home now and bored as I can't do anything. Hi Rocknroller, I saw this and though of you! Get we...

You could always build a bigger doghouse @tv101

For every dog that she got, I was allowed 10 guitars. Or for every 10 guitars I got, she was allowed another dog (I'm not sure which way round it worked). It's probably time for another dog ... @tv...

I think you might be mistaking Boo or I for your wife Having seen you both, let me assure you (both) that there's not too much danger of that! 🤣 Actually, we (my wife and I) used to have a ...

I'm just not 100% convinced that they're good enough to sell! @tv101 Very convincing but not sure this excuse is 100% convincing. I agree with @darrenking that it’s wasted on us. 🤣 They don’t...

I'm just not 100% convinced that they're good enough to sell! And the ones that are good enough to sell ... well, I'd not sell those ones, they're too good!! Hi TV, I think you might be mistaking Bo...

What about 'buying and selling'? OK, OK, OK funny guys @darrenking @boo ... I have sold a couple of my own builds through the years, though mainly when someone said "I want that, sell it to me", ra...

There is a two stage process for lacquers suggested, and the use of a liquid polish is also mentioned as possible final third stage. @darrenking That’s great Darren, thanks. It looks like the best s...
