Thanks Simon!

So my initial plan for staining was to do even stripes, along the grain, but when I opened it up and saw how angled the grain was, I realised that plan wouldn't work. But, I was discussing with my...
Oh, I hadn't even thought to confirm scale lengths... Oops. Both ends on mine seem like they're pretty close. The long end is a little shorter than exactly 27" but it's not out far enough that the...

Prewired switching. Am just gonna use it this time. Pretty neatly soldered.

For some nitpicking: Some of the frets aren't quite the full width of the fretboard further down. Not...

Interestingly, not a scarfed neck join at all. I kinda expected that from one angle, since doing the Compound Scarf is nowhere near as straightforward, but it's also not a 3-piece laminated...
Tempted by fun kits again... Curses...
Honestly though, this time it was pretty fortuitous. I'd been wanting another 7-string for more Metal stuff (since my other 7's dialed in more like a Hybrid...
ok everyone just dont look at how long i've left this idle for
So today was test day. I had a couple of false starts because I had originally planned to use Magic Marble paints, since they seemed...
Alright, so yes adjusting my last post. And have edited my initial post to make sure I'm being totally transparent with it. This is a representation of my opinions, and no-one elses. But we'll also...
Do you mean something like these? https://www.shoeproductsaustralia.com.au/shop/angelus-leather-dye/ANGLDYE
Definitely something to keep in mind for next time. I do like to experiment with...
Ohhh, I can see that. I dig that colour scheme on them too haha
I've got something in the works to add on top, so I'll have to pass on working that theme in this time around. Also a neat design...
Doot doot first layer of paint on.
I opted to do this by rubbing the paint across, then Tru Oil on top

So yea, didn't come out like the Manganese blue that it was, more of a Denim...
Turns out I can't resist making things purple...

God the lighting in my garage is awful... But yea since I had some left over after my Headless kit, thought I'd opt for this.
So it's...
I guess I was a little worried too, but I didn't come up with it myself so that makes me a bit less hesitant. From what I saw last night the Oil more or less acts to cure the Paint faster.
On that...
Hey guys, I found it on eBay, I'll look see if I can find the store name a bit later
Neck glued, and drying right now:

I believe this is the stuff that the other post suggested, and...

OK, Little update:
This guy was giving me a bit of grief with playability. The routing in the back for the bridge plate wasn't quite deep enough to give a lower action. The bridge saddles are...
Cool, but that's just not the sort of project that this is. I WANT the over-the-top wiring to challenge myself and to go with the pickups. I've already done the wiring diagrams, and have run it past...
Whuff am I bad at this getting things done in a timely manner stuff.
Ok, so I opted for some Self-levelling epoxy for the top. Its not back to a mirror gloss, just at a nice matte. As usual,...
Looks like I shouldn't even need to take anything extra wood out, just gonna be a little squished :)

I believe I follow the suggestions. I do understand the why for the changes too! Let me know if I doofed the change haha. Glad to hear the rest of it seems to be in order though!! And...
I do want to try and put everything in at once. For most of my builds I do like to keep it simpler, but this one I do want to go silly with options, and the idea of an overly complex switching setup...
Unfortunately the program doesn't have Rotary Switches in it, so I've had to put them in as Blades. It's a little annoying but I think I understand Rotary switches and these Blades enough that I...
I was going to say that I'm not sure on being a Kindred Spirit with this as I don't know if it's going to be something I ever come even remotely near in future, but then I remember that I plan to...
