Hi Folks,
Some more pics after a couple of hours of polishing. Pictures may not justified it, but the gloss but its there.
In Saying that I still have a fare way to go before final polishing. I've learned thus far that I should have paid more attention to pore filling stage and I should have sanded with finer grade sandpaper prior to staining.
I noticed there mini dips everywhere. So next stage for me is to build enough layer of shellac, then wet sand paper (1200) to flatten the surface and a little bit more shellac. Till then folks I'll post some more.
Thanks Gavin by the way do you know where in Brisbane I can get Tru-Oil?Quote:

wow Budi that has come up a treat, that green just pops well done !
Hello all, back again. Sorry for the piss poor build diary, but I've finally completed my DC Junior.
What can I say it was a challenging build and thoroughly enjoyed it all the way.
Here is a couple pics
Overall DC Junior is an awesome kit to build, I found that french shellacking is a form of meditation (i.e. excuse to do away with your house chores as parent). Took bloody a long time but its worth it.
As far as playability, its a joy. one PUP one Vol and one Tone control equal to pure pleasure.
So much so that even my other half start to play guitar again.
Anyway here here is full blown pic of my DC JR.
well done Budi that has turned out really nice, great colour combo green and black looks like you nailed the build !
Unreal. Love that green.
Budi, this has turned out great! Colour scheme & finish is sensational. Enjoy playing it (if you can keep it away from the other half!)
