Hey folks, I've made a few electrics with the usual mahogany, limba, rosewood & ebony materials, but I'll now thinking about what woods are available in the UK or Europe that are suitable for bui...

Hi @markbailey Thanks for the reply. I hope my comment didn't offend, it certainly wasn't my intention, and really sorry to hear you're going through tough times. I think everyone would be thrilled w...

Hi @benjaminschwillens82gmail-com This might be a course you could do at the workshop, but sadly there hasn't been much development with the online courses for some time. The online finishing course ...

🤣 @brie I think you're right! I was looking online for the diagram I'd seen before and thought this was it without checking. Glad I only made an ass out of me with that assumption! This is why...

@brie 🤣 🤣 Bloody auto correct😅

Hey @somethingnicer, I think @brie had hit it on the head. The figuring in wood is the grain going in different directions and potentially density. As you've found out this can make carving out routin...

@nsj lovely. I don't think there was, but just in case there was any misunderstanding, my comment was based on my mixed results with flattening with a router sled not any suggestion you were doing it ...

@brie ah yes, I know timberline but not ordered from them so far. Looks really nice, I may get a bit to experiment with. If you have a garage or workshop they don't take up any space in the house unt...

@brie it's looking really good! I really like the grain pattern of the poplar and the top is 👌. I'm going to have to investigate London plane, where did you get it from? Any thoughts on how th...

@brie Cheers Brian!

@benjaminschwillens82gmail-com thank you!

It feels like these three builds are taking forever, but the end is in sight. I've put the finishing touches to the limba build, with just the two mahogany ones to go. After days of mirk we actually ...

Really splendid!

Excellent work, Cheers! Looks great! I'm a big fan of p90s too. I'm looking forward to see you next build!

@nsj very cool!

@nsj nice work, very clean! I've got to ask, where do you get Brazilian mahogany?

Hey @benjaminschwillens82gmail-com Welcome! If you're wondering if you should start the course, just do it. You won't regret it!

That's insane, @boo ! It will be a shame to shield the cavities😅 Beautiful work
