Let me know when's convenient for you @rocknroller912 - I'm around all weekend if daytime is easier. From your pics, I think I could make something ...

That would probably be hugely helpful Bill - thank you - I'd certainly like to take up that offer. We could try the Jitsi chat again perhaps - or is...

Are those shaped diamond stones (or similar)? Where did you find them @Russ?

Rather than using screws for the neck/body, I'm going to use recessed bolts through the body with captive nuts in the neck. The neck join area is a ...

Something calm for a Sunday

By a strange stroke of luck @Russ - yes it is 😀 One day, I might have the time to program a complete guitar into the machine, press go, and t...

True @koendb - in a world where I had enough time to make those mistakes, and the knowledge/understanding to learn from them.

I *think* I've settled on a HB in the bridge position, with a standard Tele bridge but cut out for a HB rather than the usual Tele bridge p'up. Main...
