@rocknroller912 asked me to provide some info on this design in the live feed chat. I am planning on building a drum sander for my local hackspace (no point in doing it for myself as I have nowhere to...

Here's a pic our the garden from last May as that is the next project. @peebee Your garden is beautiful, no need for any work, just the regular maintenance. 👍

@PeeBee - that looks already done to me! You even remembered the beer garden ...

As for Prince Harry, current affair or politics, no comment - complete waste of energy. In 2012 I gave up all news, TV, Radio and written, it is the best thing I have ever done - its the media that ma...

More kitchen today. At least you're in the right place for the tea & biscuits 😉

More kitchen today. Yep you're right the resources that have become available over the last few years make well anything much easier to research and get into. In my twenties I tried to play guitar, we...

That said, once you've got the files that you know are right, just keep pressing go ... You mean like this..... Attachment : IMG_2107.JPG

I thought it time that I actually did some guitar making, rather than just fannying around with jigs and shit, and so here is an update on my first electric build! The body and neck of my electric Mac...

Unfortunately my mouse broke down so I had to take a break from work and fit the neck of my electric Maccaferri whilst the mouse was charging. Attachment : IMG_2111.JPG Attachment : IMG_211...

Er, yeah, and this was done by hand too!! Not quite sure what happened but the central spur was not at all keen to stay on course in the mainly end grain of this part of the body. Attachment : F7C...

Been decorating the house this last week, keep going into the garage for tools etc and seeing my first build in progress, waiting for me to get back to it .....need to get on with it but another week ...

No point regretting what I did, or didn’t, do back in my 20s. I’m just happy that I did my first Bailey workshop course in my 40s. Hopefully that leaves me a few decades to have fun in the workshop, b...

....need to get on with it but another week of decorating ahead yet! Bugger! Wish I had started making guitars in my twenties! I totally understand it @peebee. It'll take me about 10years to do all t...

Me too. It would have been a lot more difficult back then though, we didn’t have the resources we have now. Yep me too @boo @peebee plus I didn’t have the funds back then...

@mikeyrjiom Here is my contribution to this conversation about finishes on maple fretboards. Hope it helps and saves you some time and effort. 👍

The only trouble with Politics and commerce (the hamster wheels of life) is that people genuinely believe there is no alternative! Humans can be so much more!!! At least we're doing something constru...

@tv101 I'm only on build #2, #3 is still growing in the back of my mind and #4 is already on the drawing board. Ive got a long way to go on your map, l think I'll stop when it gets easy.

Thoughts prompted by another thread here ... The reasons for each build, and why the journey never ends with 1. Build #1: "Can I do it?" Build #2: "It'd be mad to just make 1". Build #3: "I enj...

@jonhodgson I'll be watching for your test results worh interest, I'm doing a similar thing but in a much limited way. I've carved a bit of ash, sanded to 320 grit and applied grain filler and stain....
