This build thread is already so long that it should be re-told in the Norse tradition of epic saga.
Perhaps an idea for the long(ish) cold(ish) winter darkness in the naughty warehouse? Install a firepit, lay on the mead, ale and meat roasting on a spit and then get our chroniclers Doc (and Shazz) to tell their saga of sand and stain, wire and solder? Horned helmets optional, axes mandatory?
sounds like a good idea Franken !

Meanwhile, the good Doctor was working feverishly away in his Laboratory located in his castle atop a tall mountain, what was he working on?, who knows?, maybe a replacement Trans-dimensional Stabilizer for his T.A.R.D.I.S.....eh?....er......um.....mumble.....m umble.....*blushes bright red*......sorry...um....I think I picked up my Sci-Fi Chronicles book by mistake instead of my Norse Chronicles book as I went out the door of my house....*epic face-palm, followed by sheepish grin*.
Update:
Just been checking the coat of finish on the Strat body of my guitar, the finish doesn't seem to have that Citrusy smell anymore, what's more, I've checked the hardness of the finish by pressing my thumbnail into it in a discrete place on the body and no marks are being left behind, so, here's what I'm thinking of doing now, give the body a light sand all over with some 400 grit sandpaper as per Dingobass's suggestion (there are some patches I missed when I applied the last coat), and then start applying some coats of DT Colourless Neck Finish Final Coat, I have already checked with Dingobass and he reckons it should be okay to do so over the last coat of DT CG Final Coat, once I've applied a coat, I'm going to hang the body up to dry on the wire coathanger hook.
What's the reasoning behind using the neck finish instead of the regular DT finish?

Doc you sure you aren't doing a 'Pest' and drinking the final coat ? haha
