Forgot to add that the NSC is available in 5L bulk for trade use so it will be a brush can.

I had forgotten about this project and remembered it at the weekend. Mixing graphite powder sourced from Amazon with a lacquer works well but it does need to be mixed and applied thickly with a few co...

@tv101 I'm hoping to record some quantities as I go along, weight of powder and paint but not sure if my scales are good enough for small sizes. Maplin Electronics was a good source until it closed. I...

I do like a bit of classical music @tv101. Not a great connoisseur but I like a bit of everything. 🎻🎼🎵🎹 🎶🙂🙏🎸

My favourite song today:

One for a Monday with the usual utube adverts

No such thing @Russ - adblock / uBlockOrigin. 🤔? @tv101.......me no understand. 🎶🙂🙏🎸

Nice classical piece there @tv101 but do you know the difference between a rhinoceros and an orchestra? The horns are in the front and the asshole is in the back!

Adblock and uBlockOrigin are both toolbar extensions for your browser. Ahh @tv101. I've just realised that you were commenting on @rocknroller912...... anyway thanks for the good advice. 👍 ...

Don't know what they're up to these days @tv101 but apparently still going. 🤔 🎸🙏🙂🎶

I don’t know how much difference it makes. Has it been measured? Or is it another myth of vintage guitar construction? @jamesbisset Just speculating here, but perhaps it isn't so much a myth as an ou...

, it’s soooo much simpler and more accurate imo. I think it's telling that machinists who work in Imperial (i.e. mostly Americans and old school British) work in thousands (or ten thousandths) of an ...

I happily converted to the metric system after moving to Germany, it’s soooo much simpler and more accurate imo. I still measure a few things in imperial like fretwire, action and scale length but pr...

@darrenking Ply patches work ok for this type of cavity repair as long as they are good enough quality to stand up to being routed with home equipment. Sometimes the cross grain causes tear out, remem...

Maybe what's required would be a pair of inner and outer templates. Most makers would have offcuts from their body blanks to cut a patch from, although it would be awkward routing a small patch. @da...

@darrenking Ok, so could the repair patches/blocks be made of birch or poplar plywood? These would be pretty cheap and cheerful (and strong) and a capping of solid could be added by the maker to matc...

@darrenking Yeah I guess you could use ply. Don’t forget if it’s a repair that is going to be painted over, it doesn’t really matter what wood it is. Unless you get a really stuffy, fussy old traditi...

Ten is 30 @mattbeels how did that happen!? Anyone seen my pipe and slippers?

Fun Fact @deej, Ten is 30 Attachment : image.png

Would a Floyd rose fit in there ? Just a though. Plus not many metal starts out there 🤘🏻 @deej Yeah a Floyd would probably fit but it’s not for that kind of client. If it was for me t...
