Building guitars the Chickenbone way....

Posted by ChickenboneJohn on January 19, 2011 at 6:27am

It's a crisp winter morning, and I'm planing and thicknessing 30 neck blanks for one of my school cigar box guitar projects.... the scrap and chips are going into the redneck patio heater/ squirrel smoker...my neighbours just love living next door to me and my cottage industry!! The resobox was finished yesterday and I'm just letting the cone settle-in before doing the final set-up and sending it out to the customer.

Chickenbone's New Years Resolution to pack up smoking has already gone down the toilet, and it's only 23rd January.....ah well, there's always next year John!

In this present financial climate, have you considered diversifying? Maybe some kippers in at smoker? :)

I absolutely love this, early morning thickness planing, and lots of smoke! And a smokin' reso axe too boot, very cool Chickenbone.

that looks remarkably similar to my yard! I have buckets of scrap that I use for fires too.
