    Default Hi from a bit north of Brisbane

    Hi, I'm Mike and work as an electronics technician and long time lurker on the forum, then joined but never posted. I've made several pieces of furniture over the years and attempted wood turning with bad results but lots of fun. In 2008 I started doing guitar repairs for my son and a few of his friends. I made a guitar from scratch, copying a picture as a plan, and some wood which was completed in 2012. Then I made another completed in 2013, now I am building a few more.
