    So while Australia Post are dragging the chain....
    Moved on to finalising the neck.
    Decided to loosen the purse strings and lashed out on SCA Septone clear.
    Sprayed a couple of coats and left it for a couple of days.
    Despite 'quick drying' printed on the can, once again reality tells a different story.

    Put the standard decal on and will layer a few more coats on.

    Looks good. Very classy and understated.

    Thanks Oli.
    Just a collection of ideas gleaned from other folk's in my past attempts.

    I checked the tracking on the 2 switches last night.
    Seems the seller sat on them for 8 days before bothering to post them.
    The rest is Aussie Post taking their sweet time delivering.
    In the meantime I've put my Epiphone up on a 3 day sale on e-bay.
    Had to make way for another guitar in the collection.
    It's been sold and posted to Queensland...arrived last Friday.

    Switches are coming from NSW....eventually.

    cheers, Mark.

    Just for the record... I didn't buy it!

    I'm still trying "make way" for the two I'm building now!

    As long as the handle turns the chuck and the chuck holds the bit firmly, you should be OK.

    I keep watching tool-tuning videos and keep wanting to buy cheap tools (that I'll probably never use) just to improve them and make them fairly decent in case I ever need to use them e.g. if I suddenly want to make a chest of drawers.
