@russ Did you make the decal yourself or order them in? I made these inkjet waterslide tranfers during my first build, I made enough for six guitars, thinking that I'll never build that many. I've...

@brie Yes I'm enjoying practicing and improved a lot!

@robin interesting! I'll look out for your thoughts. I've got the crimson water based wipe on finish to experiment with, but not tried it yet.

@nsj I’m getting used to the weight of it, maybe I’m building up my muscles!!🤣🤣 Not sure that my good lady would be too chuffed with me building 19 guitars, future projects may need to...

@brie Good work! Nothing beats playing your own instruments for the first time.

@brie I have already started practicing. Thank you for the suggestions!

@markbailey Thanks for your kind words Mark, I would have been very reluctant to start on such an endeavour without your fantastic videos and the end result would not have been of the same quality. I ...

@liebe Thanks Dan, having a rest for a while, at least until the weather is a bit warmer, then get going on the next one👍😃🎸
