DFW Posted January 25, 2007 Report Share Posted January 25, 2007 What hand tools or other non-electric equipment would you stock your shop with? As in saws, hand drill, jigs aplenty, anything and everything you can think of as necessary and practical. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlGeeEater Posted January 26, 2007 Report Share Posted January 26, 2007 Man, this question isn't fair! Belive it or not though, most of my 'shop' is mainly hand tools, with the exception of the obvious power tools. Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

biliousfrog Posted January 26, 2007 Report Share Posted January 26, 2007 no leccy...no amplification...no effects a purely acoustic civilisation sounds like hell to me so I'd either rig my bike up to a generator & work as normal or just go on a looting spree & grab the guitars that I could never hope to build.

Mattia Posted January 26, 2007 Report Share Posted January 26, 2007 ...not much differently to how I build acoustics now (no point in building electrics, right?). Maybe add a router plane for truss rods, a hand drill, and a gramil for binding. Other than that, assorted planes, assorted chisels, assorted japanese saws, good measuring tools, rasps, scrapers...stuff I have anyway.
