    Custom Bass Guitar Build

    Just want to show you all my first bass guitar I built. I've built other guitars but never a bass. This one was incredibly challenging because the body has a radius to it. Nothing was flat so jigs and templates were very difficult. Please let me know what you think. I'm looking to start doing...

    Custom Knife Blocks--Part 3--Inlays

    Each of the knife blocks gets a quarter circle bloodwood inlay on each side where the ends of the side pieces come together. On the prototype I made a jig to use a 2” forstner bit to cut an 1/8” deep recess for the inlay but the client wanted the inlay bigger so I bought a 3” forstner bit...

    Custom Knife Blocks-Part 2-- glue ups

    One of the biggest challenges of making 25 of anything is being consistent with all of the measurements and finding ways to do glue-ups efficiently. The sides of the blocks all have to be the same size on the top dimension so when the fronts are attached everything matches up. I found out...

    Made a custom tool rest

    Thanks to Matt (aka Splint Eastwood) and his metalworking I was able to make a custom tool rest for my mini lathe. The mini is small enough already, I was kinda peeved to lose so much from the diameter of the workpiece because of the tool rest base. This one is a prototype made out of mdf and it...
