So, are you in Adelaide too? Don't try to spray if it is over 30. I have learned that patience can save a lot of time in the end. My next part of the project is setting up a spray booth type area in the shed for the final coats. Weather permitting.

Not a lot happened this week. I am investigating spray booth set ups. Headstock sticker arrived. It needed a bit of rearranging to fit.Attachment 17351 It still needs a couple more coats of gloss. Upgraded pots and jack socket are on order from pitbull.

Bit late catching up with this thread and really like what you have done so far.

Cheers, Waz

I like the headstock decal
