Mark, I have considered building a 3/4 size electric but the one thing I’m not sure of is finding a truss rod small enough. Is it easy to modify a normal one or can you buy them made to fit? Oh, perha...

I'm building an 3/4 size sg like guitar. Iim struggling to find parts including neck!

We've noticed that some of the lesson videos have become out of sequence...this must be due to the essential software updates that are happening behind the scenes ...we are working on a fix. In the m...

Now it makes sense.... Bagpress, wood, guitars and some really neat clamps. It all fits together quite nicely. It looks interesting good luck

Hey guys - very exciting news! Darren King from BagPress.com is here at the Bailey Workshop - we are filming a masterclass on using the Vacuum Press for making Sides and Backs... Attachment : bag ...

I really enjoyed the live Youtube session and I’ll look forward to it every month. I loved the video and input from Darren King, it was very informative, such a knowledgeable guy. Keep it up Mark.

@frocesterbill Yes - there will be more livestreaming from the workshop courses - will probably dip in from time to time with daily updates like last time...

Enjoyed the Livestream but had to watch on Sunday as I was out on Saturday. Are you going to do bits from your BYO workshops again - enjoyed watching the last one - does it take much extra work?

Another one.... Double sided tape vs masking tape and super glue for fixing templates etc.....

@frocesterbill Gotcha - noted Bill - excellent choice ! I'll do a bit on sanders...

@frocesterbill Yeah - Why not! What do you want to see?

Are you going for a ‘live from the workshop’ thingy on Saturday Mark?

OK Massive fail - just been streaming to nowhere for the last 1/2 hr...sorry folks I have a workshop design session this pm so will reschedule for another day...

Not recommended...but try it on scrap first ans see if you like it...

Question - can you use a stain followed by an oil finish - my Firebird build will probably have a maple top on the wings - fancy them being red - can I use a stain and then Finishing Oil?
