That's 4 coats of top coat on it now, I think that's enough, I putt a bit of beeswax on my test piece and its polished up nicely. Anyway, thats the bridge glued now, it was really tight getting these ...

@boo first time in my life I've lived in a warm house, it's very weird. A lot cheaper though, was about £6 on leccy and £12 a day on coal and wood! Now I can have toasty house for anything from £4 to ...

@nsj We’ve just had all of that done but it’s all working well now. It is very disruptive but worth it.

@brie Nice one, that sounds good. You can’t go wrong with keeping on the right side of your local pub landlord. 🥃🥃👍

@brie I've not managed to start another yet, just had all the air source heat pump, solar and insulation done so it's been mental! Now it's making shelving and stuff to move things around and get some...

@boo Thanks Boo, it’s not perfect but that’s why there has to be the next one, isn’t it? 👍🤣 I have been back in the workshop but doing something a bit more down to earth - fixing a cou...

That fretboard looks like it will come up nicely @boo. Looking forward to seeing what you can do with it. 🎸🙂🎶🙏

@robin Yeah ok, that sounds good. The one I have here and the one you are passing on to me, they will just be campfire guitars. If they don’t play well around the campfire then I can throw them on th...

@boo You're welcome to it, I'll take it up to Castle Sween with me on my next visit and we'll arrange a meeting sometime.

@robin If you don't want it, I'll have it.

@boo I've got a Stagg dreadnaught acoustic with a black painted fretboard. I really don't like it, it lives on top of the wardrobe. I might take it to a charity shop, or take the tuners off and bin it...

Has anyone ever had a guitar with a painted fretboard? I haven't but I do now. A friend of mine gave me an acoustic guitar that has seen better days and started to clean it up. The fretboard was full...

So here it is for a bit - there's some alignment issues and the nut needs sorting but I missed it after playing the strat and acoustic. It's had some additional shaping, carves etc. I have some tidyin...

@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...

Coming along nicely @robin. Did you make the decal yourself or order them in? 🎸🙂🎶🙏

@brie Been having a look at the acoustic build course and already I can feel Mark’s can do attitude beginning to draw me in Mark's can do attitude is a great thing, and honestly, just follow the st...

@robin Looking good already Robin, fantastic job👍😃 Been having a look at the acoustic build course and already I can feel Mark’s can do attitude beginning to draw me in!!🤣...

@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.

@liebe Thanks Dan, I feel like I'm on the home straight now. I've ordered a tin of water based top coat from Northwest guitars, never used this before so we'll see how it goes. Attachment : ecb16...

@robin looking good! What finish are you going for?
