That must be the greenest green that I've ever seen.

@markbailey @boo Sounds like a good idea, so just for further encouragement, sign me up for the nut making course too.

@bpower I'm sure that you were warned that this becomes addictive, one thing I have learnt though is ignore the "honey do list" at your peril.

@wolframmalukker Will try to do a little shaping this weekend, maybe. Need to cut the truss rod slot first, I guess. Thats looking good. Mark always emphasises to do the trussrod slot before shapin...

Took the trussrod cover off the banjo and found solid headstock under it, just a pretend trussrod cover. So, I removed the resonater and seen how the neck is attached. I put a little veneer in the nec...

OMG = Order More Glamps Glamps = sparkly painted clamps.

@rocknroller912 I definitely won't be adjusting the neck angle then, that's away beyond my skill level. I'll not be attempting to remove the fretboard either. I think my first step is to adjust the t...

@rocknroller912 You've preempted the questions I was going to ask you and I'd already taken this photo before I saw your post. The string height at the 12 fret is about 5mm and looks about 1.5mm reli...

@rocknroller912 Thanks for all that information, I don't see any name on the banjo at all. I'm waiting for screws to arrive to put the tuners back on, then I'll have another look at it.

@rocknroller912 Ive done a few banjo repairs and do have an Irish tenor banjo so if you want to run the problem past me I might have a solution. They are not nearly as complicated as guitars. On t...

@tv101 So, I googled "banjo repair kit" to check out what's currently recommended. Hope this helps. Exactly the kind advice I had expected from you, but still funny though.

@tv101 @russ @rocknroller912 Thanks to you all for the advice guys, I did point out the risks in removing the label but Joe (he hasn't changed his name) wants me to try. It's three separate alum pl...

My daughter's friend's dad has had this EKO 12 string acoustic since 1976 and it's been in its case in is attic for the last 30 years. He dug it out recently and wants to play again. When he went to r...

That is scary stuff @boo

@steveadams That is looking terrific.

@steveadams Another great video Steve. That guitar body is looking fantastic, you should be extremely proud of yourself achieving that. You've inspired me and convinced me that my next build has to be...

@rocknroller912 @tej @bpower Just a thought on using the wrench method, rather than hammering it off, maybe use the wrench as a lever.

@ tej @Rocknroller912 The other option would be to cut the handle off and make a new one. But why do want to remove the handles if they're on solid anyway.

I'm on my android phone, no problem viewing the video.

@tej If you hold the blade in vice you should be able to chap the handle off. Obviously be careful of the sharp end.
