Posted by: @robin @rocknroller912 My town has a whisky distillery also opened a few years ago and it does tours. My days of trying to drink a whole distillery are long behind me. Just a half dist...

Well, today, I did some final touch ups on the curves of the sides and they now remained within a few mm from where they should be sitting.Then sanded the sides with 80, 120 and 240. Next: Kerfed Lini...

I realised that because I was spraying gold over the whole lot, including the purple. Guess what happened? Yep, the purple turned more and more red as I sprayed more coats of gold on. The gold is effe...

I tried to wipe off some of the gold from the purple but I just rubbed all the way through to the silver flake (sealed with clear coat, obviously). Attachment : A4A18786-B36A-46F1-8438-8DF0DFAB03...

So, it wasn’t going to work. 😔 I soaked shop towels in thinner (reducer) and wiped all the candy off (purple and gold), right back to the blank canvas of the flake again. Attachment : 7BD...

I’ve just found something online that I find interesting. Some older guitars/stringed instruments don’t have truss rods installed in the necks. So, how could you adjust a bow in said necks if needed? ...

Posted by: @bpower someone like @darrenking may be able to correct me I am really not in a position to ‘correct’ anyone and I think we’ll all find that the longer we stick around, the fewer examples...

Posted by: @rocknroller912 Are you building on a flat board or using a mold. @Rocknroller912 I am using a flat board just like Mark does in the course. Posted by: @rocknroller912 I wonder if the ...

Posted by: @rocknroller912 Side bending is best done in one go. The longer you leave it the more the wood will dry and become brittle. @rocknroller912 Ah I did not know that. Luckily for me, it seem...

@powerful That is coming together nicely! I can only hope my attempt will end up as clean as yours 🙂

Hey Blissers @rocknroller912 @jamesbisset @koendb @russ @bpower (guess the times might be difficult for you) @anyoneleseIcantseerightnow As Carol is taking a little Bliss-break, SteeveeDee & I j...

Dot markers and side dots in followed by frets today. All ready now for the final sanding process tomorrow. Cheers. Attachment : 200956BB-54B5-4A88-AE05-39127D45ED92.jpeg Attachment : ACEB...

Posted by: @rocknroller912 This is a great move for you I think. Sharpening hand tools is a good way to learn woodwork. Most people rely on machines these days which takes all the fun out. Don’t get ...

@rocknroller912 I am planning on using my hand plane to thickness it as my homemade sander is out in the shed and it is not just cold in there but it is "friggen" cold. That being said, generating hea...
