Time to mix a bit of purple candy. 💜 Or is that my homemade blueberry and blackberry gin that’s been sitting for 3 months and now ready for bottling and drinking? 😜 Attachment : FC...

Time to mix some clear coat to bury that flake and when dry, some sanding. Attachment : 6A2B19CF-7ABE-4DC9-8F3A-79C2D83FE760.jpeg Attachment : D6ABDE86-F18F-4150-B8C0-57EE03269AAE.jpeg ...

Now a bit of sparkle. ✨✨✨✨ Attachment : EEB07F87-AEDA-4CF1-8138-C36573A44AAD.jpeg Attachment : DD805491-64E6-442B-A8B1-92300D76C21D.jpeg Attachment : B9BD...

I’m just showing that skills learned here for guitar building can be used for non guitar projects too. 👍 I’m making a jewellery box for my little niece for Christmas, so time for the flake and...

@steveh Ah OK cool... 🤔 Yes, you can do that but you might have to mix and match a bit. It is what I might call a hybrid. I checked your updated drawing - it is not a good design (yet) as the...

@rocknroller912 My town has a whisky distillery also opened a few years ago and it does tours. My days of trying to drink a whole distillery are long behind me.

@robin My town has a whisky distillery also opened a few years ago and it does tours. Cafe as well.

Several beers, especially some Belgian beerwould be very welcome indeed. We can offer some drams of Scottish whisky in return. I'm not a big beer drinker, but I'm sure I could manage a wee whisky or ...

Posted by: @rocknroller912 Looks like a guitar makers convention somewhere in Scotland, hopefully not too far in the future. My local pub does real ale and has a micro brewery in the cellar. @rocknr...

@koendb nice grain on the back panel. 🙂

@bpower The Bailey workshop is located in a good area on the west coast and not too far from Glasgow airport so it’s a good place to start from, just don’t go in July or August the west is full of mid...

@bpower Its cold wet and miserable most of the year but probably still warmer than Canada

@rocknroller912 it is sounding like I need to start saving my change. I would love to see that part of the world. 🙂

@koendb Carved solid top is actually easier than an acoustic flat top because there’s no radius dish or thickness sanding involved. The gluing surface between the front/back and ribs is flat, which ca...

@koendb. I would think that a slight curve to the board would not cause any problems. The board is thin enough that when you glue the thick braces on it will take that shape. If the wedges were too ti...

Posted by: @rocknroller912 Im pretty sure that if you were travelling from Belgium to the Bailey workshop you would have to pass close to my place, so welcome to call in with some beers and discuss g...

@Koen Do you mean an arch top carved from solid wood or a semi acoustic from laminates. Solid wood carving is more like a violin type of instrument which is my particular interest. If that’s what you ...
