Just making them for myself and giveaway guitars so far but thought of putting the file and info for the laser cutting on here for any one to use. Oh and your "Scotty" git looks good.

I got the scoty tin off my friend while having a cup of coffee.

I said when the tin is empty dont chuck it away I'll have it to make a cbg.

he promptly empty it there and then and also give a really nice wine box.

he had it for years just could bare to throw it out!

I might give him the shorty to play with if he wants it.

it plays lovely a bit like a ukulele .
