I'm guessing that it's a server config/performance problem. Either Mark's now getting a lot more traffic on his site/server (I don't know what his hosting arrangements are!) than it was originally si...

I think Marcel has blocked me! Ahhhhh - I didn't realise that could be done here @darrenking - I need to find out how to do it too ?

@tv1010101 I think Marcel has blocked me! It's only his posts I can't comment on. Maybe he's allergic to snails!!

@darrenking I think I'll go with the hidden under the fretboard method as I haven't managed to make an invisible joint on anything else yet. And you're right, hit it hard enough and both styles will...

@robin I know that Mark is a strong advocate of the headstock joint and I'm not going to question his logic. I prefer the neck joint method because A. I prefer the look of the joint in the back in the...

No problem on this thread but I am trying to comment on Marcel's spalted maple guitar and "The Server' won't let me. I see that error message from time to time. Usually waiting a bit, or refresh the ...

@darrenking I notice that you have the scarf joint under the fretboard rather than on the headstock. I'm in two minds as to which method is best. I can see that with one method the joint is hidden un...

what depth of body do they need? i am just being lazy, I guess I could check the Axtec site ?

Sorry, 403!

Anyone else getting a 406 ACCESS DENIED message when trying to post replies?

Are there any big downsides to having a longer scale length on an electric guitar? You need a bigger case for it. ?

@johnnierox-boo Of course I can! Off the top of my head they are about £4 each

This is where I've got to with the drawing for this one. Next phase of machining planned for this weekend hopefully, although I have got to a take my daughter back down to university on Sunday which r...

@tv1010101 They look pretty long, what depth of body do they need? i am just being lazy, I guess I could check the Axtec site, but if you happen to know off the top of your head........

@markbailey Hi Mark, These are by far the most beautiful little switches that I have ever found and I use them on a lamp base product that I make from time to time (www.woodqube.com). In fact, it was ...

These are the little switches I mentioned and I've got four more boxes of them!! @darrenking - Are they momentary or latching switches? Either way that will make a very cool Kill Switch...I'l...

The nicer switches work as push-push (ie, push the knob and it springs up and activates the switch, push it again and it goes back down and de-activates). I've found that the push/push variety are mu...

@johnnierox-boo Hi, They have a common terminal and one n/o and one n/c contact so you could use them in the same way as a simple two position toggle switch but without the sticky out bit. Or, as I am...

These look like great little switches, are they difficult to wire up? Not particularly hard @johnnierox-boo - it's just a couple more solder joints to make. There are loads of wiring diagrams on the...
