Both look perfect for each of the bodies @boo. 🙂🎶🎸🙏

@boo wow. Those look really cool. 🙂

I’ve yet to carve them but I couldn’t resist offering them up to have a look how they might look. I like it so far. Attachment : 1E5ACE4A-4912-4342-96B3-A5686774A946.jpeg Attachment : 5D14...

I’ve still got a long way to go but these necks are starting to look good with their respective bodies. I’m going to use all gold hardware on both of them, I think it would be rude not to. Attachm...

Looking good @boo. 🎸🙂🎶🙏

All glued, pinned and clamped. I’ll come back to this tomorrow. Attachment : 2BBA8BD6-5092-4EAA-A260-099B19D968F5.jpeg Attachment : 02B65A71-789A-4971-984D-B64827EEF14F.jpeg

Time to get the fretboard on. I always lightly clamp it in place first and make sure everything lines up and is in the right place. Then put my caul on to see where the holes need drilling for the loc...

Planed the fillet and a bit of scraping too. It’s very satisfying doing this bit. Attachment : E1122733-50DC-4E33-A50B-189437C228FC.jpeg Attachment : 50F601AC-C8D6-49C9-A76A-9A96740AC6AC....

Time to unclamp and plane this truss rod fillet down so I can glue this amazing fretboard on. This neck is going to look stunning. Attachment : F77B5056-B3F7-49A4-8D84-89E05D7B7996.jpeg

I used an offcut from the fretboard to make a fillet to cover the truss rod. Waste not, want not. Attachment : 96425C65-C563-45A6-B6F9-DF5FE41F6F51.jpeg

Time to make a fretboard for the panga neck. I’m going to use this lovely piece of pale moon ebony, again using the Bagpress Fret Slotting Jig. Attachment : 72C6B36A-0C93-4E75-9274-C5570263D22D.j...

@boo you're right, Iron Gear has pretty good stuff, I remember using it in my early days as they were a little cheaper option. Days when I used to find cheap yet the best substitutes from instruments ...

Posted by: @frocesterbill Any recommendations - need to work well clean and dirty….. @frocesterbill Iron Gear are pretty good for the cheaper end of the scale. I’ve used them on many builds and I th...

I had visited the Iron Gear site - was worried they were too cheap……. I have used Bare Knuckles, SD, Creamery…. Also have a pair of Wilkinson Zebras in my Bandsman based build. All sound good…. Will p...

This week Acoustic Bliss was not bad at all.

@robin Think I missed that day. I probably went to Carlisle.

Posted by: @robin Our Scottish weather really isn't that bad, we had a great summer last year, I think it was Tuesday in August. @robin 😆😆😆😆😆 Oh don’t you sta...

Well done on your design Roddy! My mate Dave, Dave’s son David (yes confusing) and I have a workshop course booked in early October……. Already looking forward to it……

Posted by: @boo Posted by: @rathius For some reason I thought you were in England or wales. Having the Bailey workshop at least in the same country will be very handy for me. 🏴󠁧&#...

@rocknroller912 yep you’ve got that right. At least when it’s cold you can put more clothes on. When it’s hot like our summers though you just can’t take enough off. Skinny-dipping is definitely a sou...
