  1. 3 out of the past 4 have been 5 speeds. I would probably kill myself with a car that needed 6 speeds. And I'll have to agree with nyjbkim, with bad knees and bad traffic I'm starting to think it's time to consider another automatic...
  2. Welcome. Guitar Build has some plans for download. Also, take the time to read the tutorials that are available here.
  3. I've seen those before (online). Anybody played one? That's got to be weird to get used to...
  4. I must say, Snork, looking good. I can't see the pics from here (wasting time at work), but looked last night. Is that a ridge on the carved top? I was tired last night and don't really remember exactly what it looked like...
  5. Hmmm, I wonder if I can talk my girlfriend into letting me take over her walk-in closet. Seriously, looking good.
  6. I've been piecing them together for a few years. I just got brave enough (after I found this site) to start my first scratch built body. I'm hoping to have that done in the next few months...
  7. Off and on for 12 years (more off than on). I started getting serious about 2 to 3 years ago, lessons, books, etc.. I've been going to National Guitar Workshop for the past few years, a very humbling experience...
  8. Cool. Let me know how you like the spindle sander. I'll be in the market for a cheap one very soon.
  9. That has the makings of a bad sitcom written all over it...
  10. All great guitars. So, the runners up will have to re-enter for the next several months so that we can vote for them all, right?
  11. Hey Southpa, great tip on the dentist drill bits. I just got back from the dentist and she gave me 3 bits (2 round and 1 straight cut).
  12. My router is out for delivery today. By the description it seems like a good deal, fairly reasonably priced, sufficient power, plunge and fixed bases, etc.. I got this for my first guitar project, so I'll let you know how I like it. Others may have more to say, or different suggestions.
  13. You may want to ask Rodney, he seems to know his way around a bandsaw...
  14. What do you mean, like poly or lacquer? What make/model guitar is it?
  15. Mine would be having watch Fran Dresher on those stupid Old Navy commercials...
  16. Lucky... I only get one crazy night. Well two, if you count having to go the girlfriends house the next night... It's completely different spending time with the insane family, especially when they're not "you're" family...
  17. Iommi. I still have all of my finger tips though...
  18. Check out the stop tail on a Wolfgang, if you're interested in a stop tail with little or 0 angle.
  19. I just glued up some Alder last night for a body and am still in the planning stages for my first scratch built. I had been thinking Wilkinson with locking tuners, but am wanting to hear peoples opinions on trem setups. I'm not sure I'm a fan of the lock nut, because I like being able to quickly switch to an open tuning. Would a Floyd work with just locking tuners and regular nut? Opinions and ideas welcome.
