This is great. I’m really enjoying following along.

Superb work. Are you making your own bridge pins?

Been away and just catching up, looks amazing. You must be really chuffed.

Nothing that extreme Simon, thankfully. We'll be using Tusq nuts, saddles and pins

Sorry bud, I don't have enough data on my work phone to provide that, the airbnb where I'm staying has free wifi, so I'm making the most of that!!
Think I might pull a Waz and start paying photos in black and white!!

Ok, you kiddies are in for a treat!!

Finished up the final sand, so pleased with how this cutaway cleaned up






One final check before I hands it over to Aaron for inspection


Then he runs the orbital sander over it


And then it's magic time!!

So in love with this timber!!


After 2 coats, I knocked it back with some very light sanding at 400grit, then applied 2 more coats, another knock back, and one final coat

Damn that is looking nice, if it sounds half as good as it looks it's going to be pretty special

Once the final coat was finished and dry, final knock back was with 0000 steel wool
