24.01.2022 The frame came out of the glue up form and its pretty solid, I cleaned it up by planing the laminated sides and the block sections at the top to bring them to an even thickness then fitted reinforcing wood strips to the vertical points. I will trim them flush to the edge of the sides with the a saw when the glue has cured. #electricguitar #electricguitarbuild #hollowbodyguitar #hollowbodyelectric #luthiery #woodworking #australiancraft
24.01.2022 A very pragmatic bridge on the edge of a lake in Cambodia. I was riding my bicycle across Asia at the time.
23.01.2022 Shaping the guitar body with axe adze and gouge. #woodcarving #luthiery #woodworking #australiancraft #electricguitarbuild
23.01.2022 Picks up some roadside cherry wood. Its going to make a bunch of nice eating spoons :-) #spooncarving #woodcarving #greenwoodworking
22.01.2022 Thaw bandsaw is so ancient it came fitted with babbet bearings, which is a plane bearing made of a melted alloy of lead poured liquid then cooled solid around the drive shafts. Im hoping they will not require refurbishment for a bit... #babett #bandsaw #bearing #planebearing
21.01.2022 A couple hikory wattle Kuksa that Ive been meening to get to, in other news my landlord dropped around some succulents to plant at the front of my house, he informed us that he was getting to some academic work hes been avoiding for 20 years. #kuksa #kasa #woodcarving #greenwoodworking #greenwoodcarving #treen
20.01.2022 Bit of work on the guitar today, fitted the neck the bridge and the pickups in their bezels to the body, might actually start carving and fairing the guitar body tomorrow. #woodworking #electricguitarbuild #luthiery #australiancraft #guitarbuild
20.01.2022 A schcooop I made a while back in cherry ballart after being excited after watching a video with @spooncarver, Im filling up the webshop soon so keep an eye out for that :-). #schcoop #tinykuksa #woodcraft #greenwoodwork #kuksa #kasa #cherryballart
20.01.2022 A beam compass that I made to scribe some really large circles. #beamcompass #draftingtools #draughtingtools #byhandandeye
19.01.2022 No router, no problem!! Nothing like using an axe to trim rough to a line then planing it by hand, I made two of these to be feet for a shelf I am working on. #byhandandeye #spooncarving #axework #joinery #gransforsbruks #woodplane
19.01.2022 Last coat of colour on the guitar body, the red layer took forever to cure given the chill weather we have been having, when the charcoal brush coat is cured i will put a of layers of poly something for a hardwearing finish. #electricguitarbuild #luthiery #australiancraft
18.01.2022 If you replicate flat spaces on top of each other offset by a useful amount of empty space then you can fit more per flat square meter than you can keeping your things arranged on the floor. This shelf used recycled pine, oregon, walnut, vic ash and old bits of steel salvaged from various places, I fabricated the ends of the shelf from scrap metal by tig welding the rusty holey weld blobby scrap metal together, the cross strappping for the rear has a peened rivet through the Center of the cross enabling easy squaring of the carcass. #shelves #joinery #welding #design #australiancraft #storage
17.01.2022 There is this battery powered busking/practice amp I have that runs off AA batteries, I wanted to run that and all the other electronic bits from some power tool batteries. This required a designed and constructed power supply to power all the bits and bobs, anyway Im waiting for COVID 19 to pass and busking to resume. #busking #music #electonicsdesign #connectors
16.01.2022 A square bladed Spatula crafted I think from elm, recently I picked up a heap of roadside plum and cherry that a work for the dole crew were clearing out :-) #woodworking #woodcraft #spoons #greenwoodspoons #greenwoodworking #spooncarving #elm
15.01.2022 The Cambodian Kings Howdah, or elephant riding carriage, really fantastically made of woven bamboo and curved bits of joinery.
14.01.2022 Drafting up a full size drawing of an electric guitar body, each of the details is an integer multiple of the distance from the twelfth fret to the nut on the neck, reckon I will still free hand a bunch of the details when it comes time to cut wood #electricguitar #woodworking #electricguitarbuild #handmade #australiancraft
14.01.2022 First colour on the electric guitar I am building, the next coat and colour will be a blackish charcoal that I will rub back somehow to expose the rusty red again, perhaps the guitars name will be the carve-o-caster or the sloyd-tar or the electro-carve-atar. #electricguitarbuild #guitarbuild #luthiery #woodcarving #sloyd #slyd
12.01.2022 Made a start on the next guitar, a hollow body electric, so I built a frame for forming the sides of the guitar. #luthiery #hollowbodybuild #hollowbodyelectric #guitarbuild #woodcraft
12.01.2022 Switching it up materials a bit with some aluminium alloy, I laid these out and used hand tools to fabricate these bezels for mounting the two guitar pickups to its body, the small screws either side of the pickup allow for adjustment of the pickups relative to the guitar strings.
10.01.2022 Overdrive tube screamer guitar effects pedal, painted with oil paints, the panel was made from a discarded bbq cover. #diyguitarpedal #electricguitar
10.01.2022 Moon eating spoon and fossil, carved from cherry, the timber when cleaved smelled of a spicy sweet candy. #woodcarving #greenwoodworking #spooncarving #australiancraft
07.01.2022 A makeshift arrangement in the make-do isolation workshop. I am playing polyurethane varnish to the solid body electric guitar and dont really want dust blown sticking to it. #electricguitar #electricguitarbuild #guitarbuild #luthiery #australiancraft
06.01.2022 Planed and true the sticks are glued, titebond 3 as recommended for luthiery, this assembly will be carved up as an electric guitar, I wanted to get some merch pine for lightness but I can just carve it out as required :-) #electricguitarbuild #makerbuilder #woodcarving
06.01.2022 Accompanying the always shelf is a sometimes desk that can be clipped on to the shelfs steel frame for the time a desk is required, then the desk legs can be hinged upwards and declipped from the shelf allowing it to be stored away for using the space in another ways. #australiancraft #joinery #storage #desk #greenwoodworking
06.01.2022 Bent timber strips for a laminated strong body #electricguitarbuild #luthiery #hollowbodyelectricguitar #guitar #guitarbuilding #australiancraft
06.01.2022 A couple of commissioned oregon wood meditation pebbles for a Thich Nhat Hanh meditation practice. They were delightfully meditative to make #pebblemeditation #thichnhathanh #woodcarving #oregon #australiancraft
05.01.2022 A stool for gnocchi. #woodcarving #pastamaking #gnocchi #greenwoodcraft
05.01.2022 When I make items for myself I tend to make it as pragmatically as possible and gauge the fit and fish more to the practical side, this is a power converter made from close grained ancient oregon that converts my power tool battery t 9Volts DC and 14VDC for connecting to a car inverter.

03.01.2022 Cutting out the guitar parts, alas the electronics and small parts have not yet arrived so I must do something else while Im waiting for the other puzzle pieces to arrive. #guitarbuild #electricguitarbuild #luthiery
03.01.2022 Really enjoying how this guitar is coming together, I need to finalise the fit of the electronics and then I can start painting it reckon it will be a two tone colour. #woodcarving #electricguitarbuild #luthiery #guitarbuild
03.01.2022 The bent guitar sides in the frame, cooling and drying, I am excited to fit together the other pieces of the puzzle. #luthiery #hollowguitar #electricguitarbuild #guitarbuilding
02.01.2022 Perhaps your partners landlady has an expensive chair in her bungalow. And perhaps it is a @lkhjellefurniture chair, and perhaps I did not know that but I sat on it and broke one of the legs, then to make reparations I bought the chair from said landlady. Meaning now I own a broken Nordic designer chair to repair.... I think when my bandsaw is up and running I can make up a laminated leg but for now I riveted pieces of steel either side of the breakage. #lkhjelle #brokenchair #repair #chairrepair #laminatedwood
02.01.2022 Ive been organizing my tool wall using a french cleat system and making easy to move around modules, feels great, I really enjoy having a well setup and organized workspace and maybe one of these days I will ;-)
01.01.2022 This guitar has three piece laminated sides and a complex arrangement of filler blocks amongst the horns of the body, since I only had a few clamps Ive been doing a staged glue up of veneers on the horns, the three piece sides and the support blocks. #luthiery #electricguitarbuild #hollowbodyelectricguitar #guitarbuild #australiancraft
01.01.2022 The Artist box I made in plain air. ready to make work happen!
