Firebird with wings! Attachment : B83EC110-29A2-44B7-808F-AD05F862EF0E.jpeg I got up my courage and glued the wings on today - removed the clamps and I am pleased with it - need to clean up the...

Cigar box Firebird looks good! I have been thinking about sneaking in a solid Uke - possibly Explorer or Flying V shaped.....

The Wonky Phoenix..... Follwing Darren King’s idea of using Milliput to do a Phoenix logo I printed a logo, stuck it on with Titebond to a piece of scrap and tried to cut it with a tiny (StewMac) rout...

The wings are Padauk and Walnut .... Attachment : C1E59CE0-216C-4166-BC47-A5C25ADA343F.jpeg Do I leave the edges like this or do a roundover Attachment : 1C09ED1B-068D-4CEA-9651-D744A255ADC...
