@robin Yeah, I was a little choked to part with some of this nectar but I also wanted it to be a part of this guitar, my first Scottish build. We’ve had a new bathroom fitted recently and there were ...

also don't have access to tap and dye's but know a metal working guru who might be able to help.

@brie I would do that if I knew the exact size thread it is, I can't find any info on thread type or pitch e.t.c even though there's load of info on dimensions, I'm going to guess that's imperial with...

@tyreman Try using a tap and dye set to recut the thread where you can access it, it might just get it to work.

it's sort of finished now apart from testing it with strings, I found out one of the tuner threads also doesn't work which was annoying, now I need just a single tuner to replace it,still better to fi...

@nsj Yeah, I think I know why though. As I want to keep the top boards rustic and even though they are generally flat, they are a little bit uneven. This is due to me doing a deep burn with my blow to...

@boo were you using the double sided tape? I've been having a couple of issues with it and have gone back to good old superglue and masking tape for now. Just works soo well

I did a little video of it too. 😂

I got to the finishing stage of the body and wanted to raise the grain before applying the finish. Usually I use water to do that but as I now live in Scotland and the whisky is so wonderful, I used s...

My routing template slipped a couple of times when I was routing but I went along with it and it turned out well, I like it. Attachment : IMG_20230622_164147.jpg Attachment : IMG_20230622_...

I didn't go with the oak top this time, I just used some old boards I found in an out building. This isn't anything new from me really, I'm just keeping my eye in and feeding my addiction.

I carved the comfort carve and glued the fretboard on, using mark's clamping caul, it's just a piece of 4 x 2 with hardboard strips on the edges, hopefully you can see how nice the curves look on the ...

here's another update: - routed the pickup cavities -routed the back panel slot the top is very slightly off from the centreline not by much but enough to annoy me so for the real one I'll use screws ...
