I get a bit of grief from the missus when I encroach in there. @robin you could put the missus in there and use the whole caravan as a workshop! Hahaha......

The "hero" points are something different, and it's those that Mark said can be traded for discounts in his shop. @tv1010101 Yeah the “hero” points used to be displayed but they have recently disappe...

Wow, that is a great price assuming it's accurate which I guess is mostly down to the quality of your CNC. The plywood should be pretty stable but I can put a finish on it.I have a Crimson Guitars fre...

I reckon @johnnierox-boo has hacked the system and found a secret store of points that always keeps him a few hundred ahead of everyone else ... @tv1010101 You didn’t think I was gonna make it easy f...

I am not sure what would happen if we all cashed our points in at Mark's shop! Has anyone ever done this? What are they worth? I didn't even realise this was a 'thing' until Mark mentioned it in a liv...

I think that some people (mentioning no names!) are going through every single post that there has ever been and 'liking' them! It's a point or two each time I believe! I am not sure what would happen...

My patterns and jigs live on high shelves - 7’ from the ground - don’t need them very often.....

All those jigs take up a lot of room though! @tv1010101 Yep, we have to get inventive with storage.

All those jigs take up a lot of room though! My rainy days working space is getting smaller and smaller.

I’m a great fan of Osmo products and also of the Fiddes equivalents. So much better to apply that traditional Danish oil (why couldn’t they stick to producing bacon?) as they don’t become tacky anywhe...

Back and sides are lovely and smooth but the top is bumpy along the grain. @syntholabo Can you put some pictures up so we can see, I’m interested in trying this Osmo stuff. Cheers.

@darrenking Right- five applications of Osmo satin, with ultra-fine wool rubs in between. There's a mild lustre on the back and sides, and a nice oiled colour on the spruce top. Back and sides are lov...

I think I would have to say that it depends on the material the decal is made of and how it has been printed. Ideally you would make an inlaid logo from contrasting veneer as this is likely to take th...

Hey gang. I've decided to Osmo. Matt or Satin to be decided. Before I do the neck, does anyone know how a decal stands up to oiling / waxing? Is there a preferred way to get a logo on if this is not r...

@syntholabo Yup - Axminster say '0000' so we'll go with that for now...I never was very good at maths

Talking of ultra-fine steel wool... Mark- you mention 00000 grade in the videos. Did you mean 0000? That's wat i got cos thats all there iz

Thanks Darren, excellent. I have a bunch of Osmo samples, and have already used the Polyx Raw onmy lovely maple floor. I'm thinking I won't mind a bit of darkenung since this first build is pure pale ...

I've been searching for a while for advice on finishing with Osmo, because I'm petrified of spraying nitrocellulose in an inadequate environment for safety and quality's sake. I want to know how much ...

the little quality inspector sitting on my shoulder wouldn't let me just hide it under the fretboard @robin Yeah we all have one of those, mine is kept very busy!

Didn't get a lot done today due to the horizontal rain. But I did manage to knock up a headstock angle jig. Attachment : 20200922_184002.jpg I also repaired my truss rod slot ready for routing...
