Hey @jamesbisset I find using whip tips to control the speed/application of ca glue a game changer and helps prevent bubbles.They often fit directly onto the bottle, but you can also decant a bit of ...

@liebe Great work Dan, you got a real production line going there!! Really like the woods you’re using for the tops, would like to know more about Mark and Carol’s discount tops bin (don’t see anythin...

Cheers @Clinton, plenty left to do yet but the limba one recovered it's neck this morning

Beautiful pieces!

Hey @boo Thanks for your comments. It's only at grain filling stage at the moment. The z-poxy really brings out the figure in the wood and acts as a sealer to protect the stained top. As I said above,...

Thanks @tv101 I love what an oiled finish brings out in the wood, but I'd been looking for a finish closer to the qualities of lacquer, but without the need for spraying as it's just not an option in...

And a bit more, tops glued on, edges filed and sanded over and my tele neck pickup ring finally arrived. Also copper on headstock and logo on trussrod cover. Drilled the temp screw holes I used to hol...

@liebe You appear to have been very successful finishing this guitar, it looks really well. I’ve never used that product but I might just try it after seeing this, I’m always up for trying new things....

I don't recall seeing that finishing approach before - what prompted you to try that? It's certainly looking good in the pics. I've never finished a build without a similar opportunity presenting ...

Hey folks, Thought I'd share an update on what I've been up to (whether wanted it or not). I know I wanted to build more even before finishing my second electric in January. I realised I'd 'accidenta...

Dear reader, it was too thick to go through the nozzle. I took the nozzle off and managed to squeeze out a glutinous blob, but I’m not going to risk that on my headstock or inlays.

The most important word in that sentence is "old". But be careful because (current company excepted) some old things are apparently valued. 😉

@jamesbisset may have heard this before, though he's probably deleted all memory ... (This version has been remixed as part of the upcoming super deluxe boxset reissue)

That is beautiful @clinton

As usual it's all on my youtube including the cheek clenching latest episode lol

@nsj Ahh, the mad scientist is at it again! 😆 Great idea Neil. There would never be anything new if people didn’t experiment, this is a crazy one but they are the best. Keep it up. 🤘...

Just listened my way through the backlog (though I did FF through the tracks that I already knew). And Mitski is now on my shopping list - thanks @Russ. Curious fact; her last 3 albums are 32min 22sec...

@liebe Thanks Dan. It looks like black superglue is thick. 03a describe theirs as medium thick. I’ve just ordered a 20g bottle from because £6.95. Small Wonder says, “Black Superglue tends to be thi...

Hi @jamesbisset, I'd you're doing a tester it might be worth trying the black thick ca glue from O3 adhesives. I've not used their black, but their clear ca is good, as is the accelerator. They're a...

Crimson sell their own stuff in their shop - although it seems to be out of stock more often than in stock. [edit] Looks like *all* their glues have now disappeared from the shop. Chestnut Products...
