Hi Guys
Here is the start of my new creation ....... This is going to be a hard one cutting all of the mirror, plus I have a nice mother of Pearl binding to go around it.

Ooh, I was wondering if you had chickened out of this project. I should have known better. Bravo, I look forward to seeing this one progress.

this will be interesting, I will be following this thread
Perfect for the rockstars tired of carrying around a small mirror for their pre show ‘pep up’ haha
Is that glass or some sort of Perspex with a mirror backing? What are you planning on using to for grout?
wow this will be a different axe Trevor, good luck and don't cut yourself on the sharp mirror edges ! Should look very cool under lights !

Awesome Trevor! This is a fantastic project and I'm so glad to see you've made a start. I'm so excited to see how it comes out at the other end. I'm also very interested to know what you are using for the mirror shards - is it really glass mirror, or something a little safer...???
cheers,
Gav.
