I've been pretty quiet on the forum the last couple of months because I had so much things going on , that I barely had the time keeping up reading through all the new replies and topics.Last summer, ...

@nsj A lovely piece of carving.

@nsj That looks wonderful, I’m chuffed for you mate, seriously. With all that sanding to do though, you could do with a Mirka. 😂

🤣😂🤣

@nsj Just been watching your latest wee video Neil. I hope you don't take this the wrong way but I do love your unconventional ways of getting the job done. Ingenuity is a great skill to possess. Your...

@nsj Nice workaround 👍 I’ll check out your YT channel soon.

@nsj 🤣 Can you imagine the delivery cost? Maybe I would give one away to the first person who can find my house and come and collect a barrel. 😜 Scotland is a big country.

@nsj 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂 Top marks, that’s made me chuckle. Yeah there’s defo a Neeson film in that somewhere. He’ll come after you with lock, sto...

Don't tell anyone, and no-one will ever know 😉

😉 999 were one of my favourite of the punk/powerpop bands back in the day. That album came out a couple of years ago - if you like that sort of thing, there's a few great tracks on it, partic...

@nsj Yes, it's oak and mahogany. The oak was a whisky barrel top, horrible to work with, I'll not be doing again. I think the sunken bridge looks not too bad, what would you suggest to make it look i...

@boo It’s fair enough using Aldi sanders or similar, crack on. I use a cheap Draper random orbital sander that I bought a few years ago when I was painting my boat. I can attach my henry hoover to ...

@nsj Yeah I understand. I managed to get mine for £390 though so I was quite happy. It’s still a lot of money for a sander but not all sanders are made equal. 😆 I used to be a vehicle refinis...

Have accidentally deleted my entire "Robin's build #003" post, I thought I just resume from where I was. Maybe a short recap first. This is where it started. Attachment : 20210630_195020.jpg ...

Fast forward to now. Something went wrong when I was fitting the neck/body joint. I got a good clean joint but I must have altered the neck angle and height while I was doing it. So I've had to sink t...

@nsj I’m liking the look of this build, great shape and having a Floyd in as well tops it. I do have something similar in the planning. You are a great addition to this group and I’ll keep my eye on ...

That sounds like a good couple of hours work ... but worth it for all the extra enjoyment you get from a much easier-playing guitar.

We’re trying to design assembly techniques that emulate methods Gibson pioneered in the 40s, but without building a factory full of heavy engineering. Here’s the best tour video I’ve seen on the Memph...
