I don't seem to have posted a pic of my Maccaferri Concert with strings on so here it is, hanging in a small Scottish cottage that may be known to som...

Hi Bill, This is all looking great, love the Rickenbacker style sound hole. I had one of the Axminster drum sanders for many years and it was a great...

Hi Cardiff, Oh, essential - you just have to get a laser cutter! The problem is that there are just too many things that you can do with them that it’...

I now have all the externally sourced bits for the fret slot saw other than the main shaft which I am having made in the next week or two. In the past...

Getting a bit ‘off piste’ (pun intended!) but aren’t these always the best conversations? Essential topical listening, as is pretty much everything by...

Just a few notes on bandsaw set up. One thing that is often overlooked when setting up a bandsaw is to ensure that the blade is properly tensioned and...

@mateyboy Hi, when you say that the cut wanders do you mean when feeding material through against a fence? If so the the problem may well be the al...

How about "I've only ever been wrong once.......and that was when I'd thought that I was wrong, but I wasn't!"
