!WOOD!! Posted March 15, 2007 Report Share Posted March 15, 2007 Hi all I am located in beautiful Dundas ontario Canada.I have a nice well equipped shop with all necessary tools to build guitars.I am looking for someone to bounce ideas off and build guitars with.I have been building now for about 2 years and have completed 5 guitars.I am usually in the shop from 5pm until around 7:30.Would like the companionship but also the safety of having 2 people in the shop when running power tools.I have 23 years experience as a carpenter and I am completely addicted to building guitars.Don,t care about experience but must be power tool savvy.

Always looking forward to meeting fellow builders.PM me if you are heading my way.I have been fortunate enough to have acces to a reasonable supply of wood;either recycled,found or happened upon.The only wood I have bought yet is the maple cap for my somewhat Thinline Tele.Pictures are under the Walnut Tele in the in progress forum.Exotic Woods in Burlington is a great place to hang out for a couple of hours.You can walk around without being bothered and have a good selection of back and sides for acoustics and some pretty cool lumber.
