Sorry for the life story it just touched me due to the connection @boo I hope you and the missus take it easy and look after yourselves. @deej No apology needed and although it’s never good to hear o...

@boo Just caught up on this thread. You may have heard I gave a donation to MS society and I was happy it’s going to a cause that’s close to the pair of us. My mum was paralysed from the neck down as ...

Oooooo shiny 😍

I’ve spent all afternoon sanding this Sun King (Atum Ra) guitar down so it can be polished. I did the majority of it with the power sander with a 2000 grade disk (wet sanded) but spent a long time get...

Agreed @Boo "You're not paying me for the couple of hours I'll spend painting that thing. You're paying me for years of experience I've earned, so that I can paint that thing how you want it painted"...

Nobody should under sell themselves if they have taken the time to go through all of of that to produce top quality paintwork. It’s not to be arrogant about it but knowing your worth. Agreed @Boo "Y...

next question is how many guitars would you be able to spray with that expensive tin of paint, once thinned appropriately? @tv101 That I don’t know yet, I will have a better idea once I’ve used it. ...

When it is sold in tins, most of the time (not always) it is more concentrated and not ready to pour into a spray gun, it needs thinning further. So, @Boo, next question is how many guitars would you...

That explanation works for me, makes total sense. @mattbeels Thanks man 🤘

One thing I have been wondering is what the result would be of laying down a chameleon finish, then putting Culture Hustle's "Diamond Dust" on top of that before clearcoating. The light would get refr...

From Brad Angove's video it does seem that a single can will easily do a guitar, so while that may not be the most economical way to do it on a per guitar basis (especially for someone who's already a...

@boo It makes perfect sense, I thought it was probably something along those lines (logically you either had to get "more" paint or "better" paint really), but the size of the apparent discrepancy was...

Mmmm very tempting ...the missus would go nuts. I did consider that @deej but I'd miss out on the workshop trip and meeting up with everyone again. Plus my wife actually asked whether I'd really enjo...

Attachment : image.png That's quality. Great piece of craftsmanship there. I might tease re the CNC'ing, but the CNC machine didn't put the recess into the body, or fit the insert flush with the ...

I take it you are going with an oil finish? I love oil finishes but I am just worried that the walnut has too many little surface deviations that would really benefit from a good dose of grain filler...

Irn-Bru, you see, is the beverage/liquid of Champions. It is in Scotland @rashdown_online loved having some of that sat on a bench in Ayr at my last Bailey workshop with Bones (aka David Young) havin...

Best option: Commission a Moonshiner with Arm Chamfer and watch me make it live! Mmmm very tempting ...the missus would go nuts. @markbailey it would depend on price..

@steveadams The guitar looks great On the bending iron...it’s a little nervie at first but it does get easier. Certain woods bend easier than others. Rosewood ends up feeling like plastic and bends...
