@boo@tej...so are their yoghurts!...ask Ernie

Clearly you’ve not tried their router! @irishwhiskeycoke @tej Yep their routers are set to kill, as well as their drills. 👎

I agree with you but my Aldi band saw has been a cracking little tool for the £60 or whatever I paid for it. Admittedly it was the size that appealed more than anything when I got it, at that time I h...

I’m not a fan of budget range power tools from Aldi or Lidl any more. It was a novelty at first but over time they are not good tools. They break, burn out or become frustrating to use. It’s a false e...

Thanks Tej...Ive had a couple of Aldi tools die on me too but apart from a dodgy yoghurt nothing tried to kill me 😉 👍

@tej First of all, I think the guitar looks great, great job. If it was me, I would leave it, the glue doesn’t really stand out that much and it’s not in a noticeable place. If I really did want to ...

@tej Thats looking really good, the depth to that green is great. Try scraping the glue residue with a blade, I think you could be more accurate in what you're removing that with wire wool. I wouldn't...

@Tej Wow man really nice result ! I really dig the color as well.Regarding the neck position, can it be that it not only is seated a bit lower, but also that it moved back a little bit? that might exp...

Does anyone know what this gouge with the strange handle would have been used for. @robin I can’t help you with that one Robin. It’s concaved so some kind of gouge or something. It’s not for chipping...

@petersoyanov You can buy Nitrocellulose lacquers, paints and stains from They are based in Spain and they ship internationally at very good rates. Pretty good prices, excellent products and availabl...

StewMac is the best but for us in the UK and anywhere else in the world, we have to pay all of those extra charges. There are some good specialist luthier/guitar builders shops in the UK, which I’ll g...

Yep G&W are good. There is also don’t forget www.guitarmaking.co.uk neither...chisels, router bits, Rasps and now a guitar makers knife...plus kits for builds (what more do ya want!)

I guess the old saying of "you get what you pay for" tends to be right. With StewMac, as well as what you get, you're also paying for shipping, VAT, import duty and the courier's handling charge (tho...

Stewmac cost me import tax around 50-80chf each time I limited my purchases from overseas on the specialised tools only. And I have a big problem finding finishing products (here in Switzerland) I hav...

Stewmac is superb no doubt but the VAT (being in Italy) and the shipping costs would almost double the prices. I have purchased from Guitars & Woods and find that their quality good, their prices ...

@markbailey Thanks Mark. I thought Stewmac looked good quality. I wondered if some of the cheaper versions that I saw were not as good. I guess the old saying of "you get what you pay for" tends to be...

My advice about tools is to get the best ones that you can afford - as you need them. What you spend in money will usually translate to a saving in time or stress. Depends what you have more of or val...

??️?️???? Hello Peeps, I've watched Mark's Video on Essential Tools which are all mostly freely available but I'm looking for some thoughts on buying some of the Precision Tools to make ...

Hey @wayne_f, where do you live in Mi? I was born and raised in Petoskey…
