Sorry for typo Rockpile 99

Thanks Rockpile 92 I'm the same scenario as you - miss my olde workshop! Most of the time it works well, it's the cure time that drives me to distraction!!! The proverbial Guitar builders' string of...

Feel your pain there too Eddie. I think I've managed to burn through on every guitar I've sprayed clear coat on (the joys of only having a back garden for a workshop and using rattle cans). The soluti...

Moment when it became apparent I had rubbed through and affected the Purple burst finish. @eddie6string Oh no! Sorry to hear this Eddie. I know how it feels, I remember in the first few years of bei...

I'll share this week's disaster with you - Final rubs of this P Bass with 1,500 - 5,000 grit prior to buffing. Wipe off with damp cloth to remove residual dust/sludge and let it breathe off for coffe...

Routers are horrible things. Aren't you painting this one Boo, I'm sure you can fix that and hide it. @robin Yeah I’m painting it so I can easily do a repair and it will never be seen. I know what ...

Oops! 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I’m going from one mistake to another at the moment. It’s all good fun. I was routing a cavity for a string ferrule block in the back of this guitar, using ...

Cheers Mike - having never buffed I wouldn’t spot the kind of vital detail..... Is yours bolted down, if not does it stay put when you are buffing a guitar?

Thanks for the comments guys. I will post pics of the latest Acoustic later. Anyone want the details of pulley sizes or where the parts are from etc let me know. Bill Flude I looked at the highline on...

A tempting idea to build something - I have watched the YouTube videos for the Highline one.

I was star struck in awe and deeply honored hearing that and coming from a guitar legend, the one and only Carlos Santana. @clinton Ha! Great story. I must come and try them for myself.

A guest at my work insisted to talk to the Chef. I told the General Manager not at the moment for I am busy cooking and to give me a sec. The guest walks in the kitchen and compliments my Mushroom Tru...
