    Isn't Fosters Australian for beer?

    This may be a stupid question but here it goes: If you roll off the volume on your guitar to clean up the tone, don't you also have a significant volume drop? If so how are you compensating for it?

    Made laugh right out loud!

    +1 I came in here to vote having made up my mind to vote for Mattias DC. I love that inlay. But, then I saw for the first time that Xlr8 had thrown his LP into the mix. I just love that heal. Do you mind if I borrow it?

    Very cool Drak, thanks for the info.

    Drak, This is what I have for a R/O sander, my sander is this what you are talking about? Would you use the power sander on a carved top? I have never sprayed anything before, how do you avoid orange peel in the clear coats following leveling? Thanks Jeremy

    I have my shop in my unfinished basement. For me, the two biggest considerations are dust and noise. Other than those issues I love having my shop indoors! The only thing better might be a heated garage. The dust collector is your friend! You also want to make sure any dust is isolated from your central heating and cooling system, otherwise it will just plug up your filters and blow the dust all over your house. Your best bet is a decent plan for dust collection.

    I use my table saw, but I tilt the blade to the angle I want. Then I attach a fairly tall auxillary fence to my saws rip fence. I hold by neck blank vertically against the fence and then I clamp a guide board perpendicular to the neck blank, that rides on the top of the auxillary fence. I raise the blade up a little at a time, and make several passes. If my blade isn't tall enough I finish with a hand saw, but for my LP neck the blade worked out to be tall enough. (pretty extreme headstock angle)

    Hey man, try this on a piece of scrap, but, I'm pretty sure as the stain dries it gets dull. When you shoot the clear on it comes right back.

    Damn Godin, that is soooo nice. Great work.

    I did most of the last one you posted. It was fun! I was surprised at how many of them I knew. The ones I didn't know seemed to be only a google search away, like the pot source code one.

    That frickin rocks!
  13. jer7440
    That would be perfect for me. Every sound imaginable. I always play miked anyway.

    If you look at the breaker for the circuit in question it will have a number on it. That number is the amp rating.

    Sounds nice D. How far did you move from your old location

    In the states we have places like Office Max, Staples, and Kinkos. Alot of these places have big format printers that could print your dxf file. Call around, there may be something like this in your area.

    How far is your main panel from where you want the compressor? Do you have any space in your main panel for more breakers? If you look at you main panel there are little metal tabs that cover the extra breaker spaces, if you don't have any metal tabs your box is full. If you have two tabs on top of each other, then you have room for a 220v breaker. From there it's an easy job to run the line, especially if your main panel is near where you want the compressor. Even if you are not comfortable doing the work, I can't imagine it would cost too much to have a pro do it.

    Typically you would resaw the wood on a band saw, leaving it heavey of your ideal thickness. Then you would run it through a thickness sander to get your final dimension.

    Did Jay5 buy a tele template from Kirn?
  20. jer7440
    Those drawings are in MM if you use the scale function in your cad program and a scale factor of 1/25.4, it will come out correctly in inches.

    Wow Matt, very nice. What a great opportunity! I have a couple of questions. What is the red material that you used for those inlays? What is that red nut made from? Oh and did Jeremy teach you how to paint like that? JK
  22. jer7440
    Dude, You know you can't make a post like that and not give us any pictures
  23. jer7440
    Very cool!
  24. jer7440
    Jay5, I like the looks of that drill press table. Very nice.

    Buy or rent a pallet jack (you can buy one from Harbor freight for about $200), and rent a truck with a lift gate or a ramp. We have moved bridgeport mills and other large equipment in our shop with the pallet jack. It just takes a couple of guys and a little finess to get the machine up on the jack, but once its up there it's smooth sailing.
