PS If you have any kindling going spare...... Hang on @bagpress ... are you offering to swap bags of kindling for some nice maple neck blanks?? I've got a lot of old twigs and branches here, perfect ...

When this kind of thing happens to me (yes believe me it does) the best thing is to put it down and do something else for a bit.. Quite seriously, on the build (and cock-up) that I admitted in the th...

@ronscott axesrus are good guys - stock all the odd bits and pieces that you need, sensible prices, and usually deliver quickly too.

You know where I am @Boo - please keep in touch.

think about it overnight, i've done some stuff that I've had to think about overnight for a good few months ... if only Mark had warned me....... He needs a memorable phrase that we can all keep ...

Just explained on a separate post..... believe..... it's dead now Indeed, dead and cremated too!!

🙁 I'll admit that various bits of wood have left my workshop and met the log burner. Though never such nice pieces of wood. Funny story time ... I mucked up a CBG neck (which had only been made from ...

I’m taking a break from this forum I'm not sure that's actually allowed @boo ... Hope all's OK with you, take care out there. You can check out (for a little while) any time you like, but you can n...

so this weekend I went to my local hardwood store and bought a piece of mahogany big enough to make another one piece body. I reckon that's a *very* wise move! 👍 And I'm madly jealous that ...

Just @Boo. making mischief then. Or a simple BooBoo ...

However...... the damn neck has still been demoted to firewood for other reasons! Hmmmmm ... what else went awry James, and are you sure it's fatal??

I must have missed that too. I think everyone will have missed it @Robin - because I just watched the livestream again, and Mark specifically said that they'd be there every Weds/Sat in the run up to...

I based my Bandsman build because of this particular guitar. Wow @clinton and really pleased that it inspired you, particularly now that we’ve all seen the quality of your designs and builds 👍...

I should have paid closer attention Tony. Have I seen some pictures of your first build somewhere on this forum? Indeed you have @russ here I think it’s fair to said that my first build left room ...

Enjoy the Christmas break Hang on just a minute there ... Christmas is *weeks* away ... does this mean that there was some sort of announcement on today’s stream?? Are we going to be livestream-less...

kind of makes it all worth while really doesn’t it? I don't think there's much other reason for us being here* @boo ... enjoy our allowed time as best we can, without causing others harm ... Ƕ...

(and I got the 59 LP as well whilst I was at it) Does that mean that you can recreate the carved top of a 59 LP?

It does look stunning Tony, I'm guessing it was your first Bailey build. Sort of @robin, but not in the way you meant. Only one man can put this logo on a headstock ..

Excellent Tony. I don't imagine my first build will be as good but I can but aspire........ The name on the headstock should have given it away @russ - this wasn't one of *my* builds, this one was bu...

And the story behind it all ... Way back in 2007, I attended my first Bailey BYOG course. In the evenings, we'd sit around in the cottage, talking, drinking (tea, obvs), and playing the odd guitar t...
