just because you can. Yes, pretty much Robin, I wanted to use little M3 stainless hex socket machine screws for the fixings rather than wood screws and the inserts grip pretty well once the screw is ...

I like your style but, do mermaids even have thighs? @mattbeels and @tv101 Yes, one big thigh but it’s a bit weird fantasising about virgin aquatic species. 🧜‍♀️

Nice work there @darrenking, I'm envious of the precision of your CNC routing, I used to programme CNC sheet metal punching machines and plasma cutters many years ago, but that was only two dimensiona...

so here is an update on my first electric build! @darrenking It’s looking great Darren, I like the tenon joint. I love the woods you have used, cool top. You’ve got a lot done, it’s coming together q...

I thought it time that I actually did some guitar making, rather than just fannying around with jigs and shit, and so here is an update on my first electric build! The body and neck of my electric Mac...

Posted by: @ I think Marcel has blocked me! It's only his posts I can't comment on. I am not aware of blocking anybody, don't even know if it is possible. And if it is I wouldn't know how to do it...

Errors may be due to the team moving things to their own host...it sounds like it should be fixed soon and we should see improved performance on the site...I also hope they fix the edit and quote func...

@darrenking I think I'll go with the hidden under the fretboard method as I haven't managed to make an invisible joint on anything else yet. And you're right, hit it hard enough and both styles will...

@robin I know that Mark is a strong advocate of the headstock joint and I'm not going to question his logic. I prefer the neck joint method because A. I prefer the look of the joint in the back in the...

@darrenking I notice that you have the scarf joint under the fretboard rather than on the headstock. I'm in two minds as to which method is best. I can see that with one method the joint is hidden un...

No problem on this thread but I am trying to comment on Marcel's spalted maple guitar and "The Server' won't let me.

Sorry, 403!

Anyone else getting a 406 ACCESS DENIED message when trying to post replies?

@johnnierox-boo Of course I can! Off the top of my head they are about £4 each

This is where I've got to with the drawing for this one. Next phase of machining planned for this weekend hopefully, although I have got to a take my daughter back down to university on Sunday which r...

@tv1010101 They look pretty long, what depth of body do they need? i am just being lazy, I guess I could check the Axtec site, but if you happen to know off the top of your head........

@markbailey Hi Mark, These are by far the most beautiful little switches that I have ever found and I use them on a lamp base product that I make from time to time (www.woodqube.com). In fact, it was ...

These are the little switches I mentioned and I've got four more boxes of them!! @darrenking - Are they momentary or latching switches? Either way that will make a very cool Kill Switch...I'l...
