WOOOOOOO! Rock and Roll! That's looking awesome Trev!

Look at the body on that! Phwooar!

There are many many 50l tote boxes full of yarn stashed in our storage, and storage at my in laws house. Not sure knitting is any cheaper.

“I need to get it down from 50 to 30 for the she-oak cap. Thinking there could be some hand sawing in my future.”

Router sled thicknesser project?

Due to the rigidity of the material, dey ain't no truss rod in that puppy! Your alignment and nut/bridge angles would need to be spot on for every build.

At USD 969 a pop, I'll stick to making my...

Loving how this is going! Great Job MadMike!

yeah, I especially liked some of the shots of his cutting rig. It obviously works but man, it’s MacGuyvered to all hell.

Stick with luthiery, I have knitted. Guitars are far less an issue if you stuff up a paint coat, than if you snag a skein or drop a couple of stitches. Especially If you didn’t notice the drop at the...

feckity feck feck feck. That’s gotta give you the screaming irrits. Such is home luthiery. Sad face/angry face.

Hey Rabbit, If you are ever stuck for getting that sort of resaw stuff done, the Lab is happy to assist, if Glebe is in close enough proximity.
I’ve fairly successfully resawn old hardwoods at my...

Great work!

Dude you’ve got production line going!

Very nice, you scored a wonderful top on this one. Great Work!

Mmmmm, that DC. That DC is giving me bad ideas. Lovely work BD.

He’s happy to travel, but not great in humid atmospheres. He tends to short out.

It’s all good, he’s stitched himself back together now and focused on building hollow body moulds. Enjoy the 12, look forward to seeing how it goes

SO IT WAS YOU!!! Igor is beside himself that he missed out.

Before you upgrade to a bandsaw, you must have done at least one full thickness solid body, cut by hand with a coping saw.
Tho thayeth Igor!

Welcome Steve! Look forward to seeing your build!

The black pup rings pick up the black inset in your tailpiece and tie the whole thing together. Definitely the black.

Its a fascinating subject to delve into, there are some interesting conversations I have flicked through on the ANZLF forum. Then you get into the different styles of bracing used in acoustics, it’s...
