I just couldn’t resist. I got a few off-cuts of wooden, laminated worktop off my brother-in-law and I just had to make a body blank (I just needed a fix 😬). It’s thin stuff for a worktop (abou...

@nsj Yeah, it’s always a bit of a nerve wracking moment. Looking good. 👍

If I could rescue the neck and get a replacement fingerboard that might be the way forward. If I don’t, I still have to clean up the fingerboard edge where it almost got stuck to the caul. But of cour...

I think that looks really good - lovely piece of timber for the board, and the dots are super-neat!

I’m quietly working on the guitar neck for my laminated semi hollowbody, and rushed off to Stranraer this morning to get some hardwood strips to make my fingerboard caul. On the way, we popped into a ...

wow

Some time ago I was asked to build a Tele style for a friend of a friend. He wanted specific natural wood body finish and C profile neck. It was all new to me so I asked him to buy all the hardware. T...

@nsj I read on another forum that evo gold supply problems are due to the foundry which makes the metal not being able to source raw materials

@nsj awesome work !

@nsj Yeah, lovely. Last time I did an ebony fretboard, I used gold Evo fret wire, it looked amazing. There is something about the dark ebony and shiny gold frets that is just wonderful.

@nsj Nice work. That is a very nice piece of Ebony, lovely figuring. I like the fret markers too, I’ve not done that type yet.

Today I finished the little bridge, lots of knife carving 😊 The little flowers are 7x7mm , just to give an idea how small and finicky this bridge is I m sorry but the photos are not in chrono...

@nsj Great work and nice combination of woods.

@nsj That is a stunning guitar, very well made. Not much more I can say really, beautiful. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

I couldn’t resist, I just had to see what these staves would come up like. 😁 Attachment : 2A877A0F-4FEC-4B2A-9C8E-8E65F2AEF985.jpeg Attachment : B4286B96-2D78-4801-9F8B-B5D51E552E2D...

I finally dismantled one of these barrels today. Hammer and bar did the trick, it was quite easy. I just knocked off the metal bands/hoops (don’t know the technical term) and the thing just fell apart...

Ok guys I’ll start this off with some old rubbish from one band when we managed to sneak into Paul McCarney auditorium and play a few songs.... I’m the bald git on the left....no comments about the sh...
