Hi back, Darryl. In reply to your comment that ...

... I'll say that I already downloaded that one ... and several others! I've been pretty busy buying up books on Amazon, and quietly checking stuff out in the "on paper" world. Am checking out online stuff, too ...
Hi Darryl, already made a one stringer out of a cigar box and sledgehammer handle. I’ve also made a 3 stringer shovel guitar. I’ve started makeing a fretted 3 stringer Camacho cbg. Also got plans for a fretless cbg when my beef and sheep hill farm here in Wales allows me.
Thanks for the Friend request Darryl. Ive built a few, turned out to be pieces of junk.. then suddenly you string it up.. plug it in.. and its starting to play. I cant really play.. but that's the beauty of CBG's.. they don't care.. just play anyway!!!
got to finish the first one ... then learn to play .. already looking at making a 4 string but after i can make the first one pass recognizable music and not afraid to play in the back yard.
Yeah it's pretty cool I've been looking for a couple of old plates myself.i know what you mean about getting side tracked I'm working on a few cbg atm in my spare time we cut 6 knecks and fret boards recently as well as picked up some cool boxes and things... oh man the addiction is setting in I think (hello my name is Chris and I'm a cbg
addict) is horrible but fun at same time lol
Well, I just noticed your friend request. Yes I go to the club meetings at the 61 Roadhouse but only very infrequently. Does your son go there, and if so what's his name?
Thank you, Darryl. I found the CBNation site while looking up how-to pages and tutorials. I'm planning on making a resonator when I have the time (which will hopefully be this Easter).
In this video I compare the three different wooden slides made by David Bell and Phil Young up against my Dunlop glass slide! I gotta say these wooden slides...

I swear I saw a question from you on the friend request, but I'll be damned if I can find it now.
Thanks!

Thanks., Will be starting my first build as soon as all the hardware arrives. Looking forward to building then learning to play.

Thanks Darryl.
Still trying to learn to play them. But I'm already much better than I ever was on a six string.

Darryl, I was able to messenger Rob, and he responded with his e=mail address and phone number. Thanks for responding to my request.
I'm very new to cigar box guitars, trying to find the above average budders. I want to buy my first then try my hand a building them.
Thanks, Bill
THANK YOU
