@darrenking. Hi Darren, I've just been watching your Bagpress laminations videos on Mark's courses. It is so hypnotic and therapeutic to watch. I'm now chilled for the rest of the day. Your Acoustic g...

Fun fact, I bought the air compressor Mirka over Christmas and only when it arrived did I notice it was the air compressor version and I don't have a compressor. That's what happens when you have amaz...

You say a "big compressor", but if someone didn't have room/budget for the biggest, what would you say would do the job for most people? i.e. enough to spray one guitar at a time, and run a reasonable...

what are you going to make from that nice flat piece of Ash? Hi TV, Actually not that nice if you look closely! It has significant worm damage down one side so I would need to find another piece to m...

The cheaper ones I’ve found weren’t really that much cheaper than the best ones, and the alternatives like using welding cleaning files tend to suck at nut slotting Yup, that’s true.

@jonhodgson I’ll keep an eye out for discounts and hope for the best. It would be nice to be able to make everything myself in time.

@tej There are several sources for nut slotting files and if you’re going to build a guitar(s) you’ll have to adjust the nut. The set from Hosco is high quality and will work for 8’s, through 11’s. Yo...
