@mattbeels @boo Yeah, that’s one way of not improving your soldering skills. Why not just order a pre made neck to go with it? I heard a rumour that there used to be shops where you could buy a wh...

@boo but I’m not sure I’m a good enough painter for guitar shows just yet I think it's pretty clear that you're more than good enough.

@jonhodgson and Rocknroller912 Definitely an interesting read and the author obviously has experience with 1000 guitars under his belt. My first acoustic is still on the drawing board so most of this...

@bangy Welcome to the group, you'll find a lot of very helpful new friends here. Marks videos and online courses are great, I stumbled on them by pure chance and I was hooked, until then I didn't know...

Most of our missus know what we are thinking because we only think of a few things and only one thing at a time...... Sometimes my missus knows I'm wrong even before I've thought it, as in "I knew yo...

Your mum needs you more than we do Mark, I hope she's not too poorly.

@koendb The logo itself is a bit stolen and altered to make it my own. The black logo's have been printed by myself on laser waterslide decal paper and sealed with a clear coat. I did the same steal...

@koendb I think your logos look really good and professional. What have you made your logos from?

@mattbeels Your new workshop looks huge, you'll never need all that space. My new workshop arrived today, I'll get lost in all the space I've got in there compared with the corner of the garage I've ...

@darrenking And here it is stuck in and sanded flush and with a bit of alcohol spray to make it look pretty. That jack plug insert is a touch of genius, and beautifully fitted in too.

@mattbeels Wow, looks nice and peaceful. Any other wildlife there? It's very peaceful, apart from school holidays and weekends, we almost have the place to ourselves. We see golden eagles most days...

@tv101 Pretty sure that a couple are pretty much resident here and that we've had at least one fawn born here. These two grew up on the caravan site and were fairly tame when they were younger, they...

@mattbeels Where do you live the rest of the year? The rest of the year I'm in a caravan on the Scottish west coast. Attachment : 20180926_173848.jpg Attachment : 20180920_192225.jpg

Nice work there @darrenking, I'm envious of the precision of your CNC routing, I used to programme CNC sheet metal punching machines and plasma cutters many years ago, but that was only two dimensiona...

Hi @matt That’s great news about your workspace, I hope that you’re able to make it nice and comfortable. Will you be able to heat it for the lovely part of the year? My new shed should be delivered...

I'm looking forward to seeing photos of your new workshop Matt. I've planted seeds in my back garden to grow my new workshop, its started to grow now. Attachment : 20210306_173635.jpg

@tv101 but then I remembered that there are a few Scottish people on this forum, and I didn't want to offend Carry on offending TV, the more we're offended, the more likely to become independent. Gu...

@boo What is this old money you speak of@tv101and@robin? I have heard speculation about it before but have never found a definitive answer Old money is what we had before VAT was invented. It had t...

@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.

@tv101 A fraction under 7lbs in old money - Perfect! 6Ibs 19s 11d to more precise. 🙂
