This could be git related or not. So, what's on your workbench at the moment?

I have 4 scarf joint necks in different stages of work.

A 25" scale pine 5 string neck for a Banjo-Res, A 25" scale Red Oak neck for my 6 string Strat-Res build, A 24 & 1/2" scale Red Oak neck for my 6 string Double Cut Tele build and a 27" scale 6 string Baritone Conversion neck for a Modern Strat body I have.

1986 was the year my daughter was born. That's a good looking plate Blues Frog.

I had a Marshall amp just like that one in your picture back in 1984 that I bought with my first Strat.

Paul,

Its a Marshall Lead 12. An old one my brother had and gave to me. I had to replace the Volume pot to make it work. Great little amp.

My girlfriend's mother used to work for DMV. When they came out with the "Liberty" plate they made this one as a demo or something. They gave it to her. When she passed my girlfriend aquired it and she gave it to me to make a guitar out of.  So this is the Liberty Guitar

I got some new goodies from Gitty for future projects. Got a couple pickups and a couple rod piezo's.

I see the site still has problems.

My current project is a Hawken style black powder rifle (think Jeremiah Johnson) but as soon as that is done it's back to the guitars. Have a nice rectangular Jack Daniels tin which is begging to be turned into a 4 stringer with a mag pickup. Thinking I'll try Neanderpaul's CGCe flat tuning on it. It seems appropriately simple for my lack of musical talent!

That tin will make a great build.

I have a CVA 50 caliber rifle and a 44 Black Powder Pistol that I love to have fun with, but cleaning isn't fun at all.

well i finally cleaned the shed enough to get out the table saw. tried to make a cross cut sled for it and while screwing down one of the rails i over tightened it and split the rail... glued and clamping overnight , hopefully i can just sand it a bit and still use it...will be able to make boxes soon!!! after i do all the damn projects the missus wants!

Last month I got my new table saw out of the box to use on a cabinet project for my SIL. After spending an Hour getting it set up correctly, I got to use it. It works decent for a cheap saw, wondering how long it'll last.

Aw crud Timothy, I forgot about that list. That could set me back quite a ways. I better pretend I never read your post (although I do need to make a crosscut sled and a finger joint jig too).

well got the sled fixed. not perfect by any means but good enough. ripped some 9mm plywood to make these little shelves and a bit of pine to stop things falling out.. the missus is happy and thats all that matters!!

Nice job indeed.

 I like it!
