After over a decade of being in here nearly every day, I feel guilty only showing up long enough to post some pictures.
The fact is I used to leave this up in the background all day at work and keep up and comment during slack times. The past 18 months or so have been so busy, that I can go weeks without ever opening up a browser,
It's making me tired.
On the weekends I still work on my wife's table. The carving is essentially done. I've decided to semi-sand to show off the wood and carving marks as well. The plan is to sand and shape and add back some carving marks as needed. I don't like leaving chipped areas and splintered cuts. We'll see if I can stand it....
The branches look like drift wood in this stage.
On nearly all of my guitar builds someone says that top is really nice but I think I like the back even better.
The same could happen here, I suppose.
Baby's got a bubinga butt.
And then to show off her butt, a little wipe of mineral spirits.
Sometimes they sit on the best part.
