Thanks Davey-

you're welcome, thank you for your comments mr South Paw !

tunning is Gdg, so its key of g? i guess

Baby back ribs, Might as well use the band saw... Chain saw for roughing out the neck... I've got my box glued up and neck shaped for #20. I'll post some in process photos. And the garden is doing good. Everything is up!

Hey Paw, I've been in my garden all day too. Lots of weeding and watering. We suck water from a lake and pump it half way up the hill, then move the pump to the tubs filled and pump the rest of the way. Lots of bucket work too. I cut out parts for a diddley bow today too at the summer shop (at the lake gardens). Tomorrow I'll glue her up. No laws here about noise. Jet skis all over the lake, chain saws, my band saw, windy. Nice day! ... Dave

Hey South Paw, thanks for the great and long note about your copy machine. Keep me in mind if you make a plan for sale. My current method is simple, but it works. I just lay my model neck alongside my new neck and scribe from one to the other with a t square and pencil. I just file my lines with a knife file. They don't show up well in use. I'm going to try using an airbrush to highlight each fret mark. I used to do airbrush illustration, so this will be a simple thing for me. Good luck with your marvelous tool. How's that double banjo, guitar monster coming? ... Dave

Hey Davey - i'm from Chapeltown just on the border with Barnsley but i started life in Attercliffe moved from there when i was 7 - in 1977 the queens silver Jubilee - it was her Diamond Jubilee today - not as though i'm any sort of royalist like !

thank you Mr David "south paw" young !!!

very true,..had a few good vibes so far..

a friend of a friend has a shop deal,s with gort.and they gave me them .shop soiled ,a few scratches and parts missing.but still in good order..so im chopping them up...i would like to have real cigar box,s but by time they get to me there not cost effective.about 20$ postage.for 1 box.its a bit of a shame to cut them up .

...look at the little magnet added here under this little pickups... you can change it, choose other one, or put one more... happy if it could be useful

to build pickups, I keep little powerful magnets found in little games for kids...

like "geomag"...
