Thanks for all the suggestions. I am trying to get a knowledge base before asking specifics......I have about a million questions and I am trying to save you all from them!!!

I suspect many of...

Ahhhhh she's a beauty!

Hey guys,
Thanks for the replies. I will most likely build an electric for my first. Both of my sons enjoy strumming around on my guitars and I would like for them to have their own. I...

At the risk of getting told "Hey we already covered this" Is there the one fantastic....gotta have it book on guitar building? I have picked up a lot by just watching your builds but I am curious...

haha........as long as we enjoy them we can horde a little right? :2tsup:

haha......I never would have thought it. These drums are pretty amazing sounding especially how many tones can come out of a nice portable package that probably could stand up to some abuse.

I...

Fantastic build! The warlock style was the first guitar I drooled over and it's cool that someone is still inspired by them. Nice job and thanks for sharing.

I really have enjoyed seeing this...

Hahahahahah!!!

Hey there, I have been looking at cajons and djembes too and I am really thinking the cajon would be handy and very fun around a camp fire. I have read that some are made of "rubber wood" which is...

It's true! I saw it too! :D

I can't believe how easy you guys make this look! I have been sitting here looking at these threads for hours. Little football.......little reading......little beer......(then more beer)...

OMG........Nice job on a first build. I am really wanting a semi hollow body guitar and it may be the first one I build. Really diggin the finish on that one man.

I think it would be cool to...

This thread has been fantastic........makes me wanna go build something. But my tools are 300 miles away......... Maybe just play a few songs instead???

Keep em coming. I am dying to see the...

Greenie for you! Thanks for sharing the project. Very unique.......fantastic result! Love it!

Scott

Thanks for posting progress of this project. I am enjoying watching it!

I am really enjoying the build on this one. I haven't been around here in 5 years or so and in the mean time I have started playing the guitar. Between the love of a good sounding guitar and my...

Fantastic!!! Love the wood (remember I am from Texas) and I think the chrome works well too.

Man, I need to buy a lathe!!!

That is fantastic!!!

It was the cap.........I changed it out and it works like always. *Puts wallet back in pocket. Will have to get the Jet later.

Thanks a million for all the input.

Scott

Guys I want to offer my sincere thanks for the number of replies to this post.

It sounds like it is under load when the switch is on not unlike when you have pinched a piece of wood together...

Basically I turn on the switch and I can hear what sounds like the normal start up but the blade either turns very slowly or not at all. It will trip the breaker before it ever spins to full speed. ...

I love the deep rich coloration in that table. You should be proud of your work! Nice job.......thx for posting.

LMAO!!! I needed a laugh this morning. Nice one!

Skew, thanks for the reply. This may be the case with the grain raising. It does seem grittier in those areas. I may hit the whole top with some 400 until I get it smooth again then build it up...

Hey Zen......much to my dislike, I have yet to try a spiral bit. I hear about them all the time but just haven't bought one.

As far as MDF goes, I have yet to have trouble with any type /...

Skew, the dust is a possibility although this would have been a grip of dust to cause this problem. I also wiped the tung oil on with a rag.......gave it 15 minutes to sit and off again with another...

Jow, I have enjoyed watching this unfold. Nice job! Thanks for the pics.

I have been applying tung oil to my last project off and on for the last 2 weeks. I am using tung oil and I was originally impressed at how nice it looked and how easy it was. (no lap marks no...

That would be a great deal.............(for one of us) But a good time no less!

This thread title was too good to let die!!!

Richard.......I shall echo the bunch and say.....I am very amazed and impressed and a few other words that don't readily come to mind. That sir, is nothing short of fantastic. I agree with the...

I think it looks very nice.......I like the tapers and the finish.......In this case pine can't be called crapiata!!

Nice job mate!

Congrats!!!

Thanks all.....as for the drawer pulls I am not sure what would look good. I have intentionally overstated the mass of these pieces and will do the same on the chest of drawers/bed to match so I...

I am posting this again without the progress pictures as the other thread was long and you had to sort through to see the pics. Nightstands made of Cherry with tung oil finish.


Enjoy

Scott

nice progress........I almost choked on my coffee and fell out of my chair when I saw that shop. Was about to call my wife and explain my jealousy........hehe.

It does look like it will be a...

Thanks for the kind words everyone. I look forward to making the bed to match.

OK........finally after much delay I have completed the night stands.

A few more pics to share my work with you. I still am amazed at how the project comes to life with the finish applied. A...

LMAO........I agree.........a 5 pound shop hammer........

Then go have a couple pints.........(I always have a reason don't I)

Fantastic bench.

1+ greenie for you!!!

Scott

I had a bit-o-crap happen while using Ebay......

I basically bought the item........paid for it within a few hours.........didn't hear from the seller for several days.......started getting...

I laughed til whiskey came out my nose when i read the title of this thread.

Always good for cheap laughs!!!!!!!

Carry on!

Thanks for the reply.........this may be an illusion or perhaps I have had one too many pints.....but in the first set of pics the lower left hand cutting board has a very wavey look to it. May be...

Alex, I have enjoyed the thread and I am quite impressed with the curved pieces!!!

Keep it going!

Greenie for ya.

Scott

Tis my favorite show!!!

son of boban..........very nice job. I enjoy seeing children getting enjoyment out of wood working. My kids have a lot of fun in the shop.

Rocker.......congrats. Any way to post the article?

Thanks for the laughs Barry.......nice one!

You people make me laugh........

I agree

hahaha

can they be sharpened.......or are they commonly? Or do you just chunk em when they are dull. My machine isn't cutting quite like she used to and I have another set of knives already but didn't...

How do you get the wavey appearance in them? I have seen several cutting boards but I do like the effect you have made.
