I'm in need of a Las Cabrillas Desoto Natural Cigar Box. I actually only need the lid but I doubt I'd be that lucky where someone would just have an extra lid lying around that they don't need. I'll…Continue

Does anyone have a Las Cabrillas Balboa box they would be willing to part with. I have a couple of nice boxes that I'd be willing to trade for one or buy outright. I've got a nice big white Torano…Continue

So if wanted to build one of these it would be basically like building a regular 3 string CBG but I'd only fret the 0 2 4 5 7 9 10 11 12 positions or some variation of this?  I've seen a few on…Continue

first six string

"I'm totally new and not very handy. Don't underestimate my stupidity! ;-)  So, did you put a block of wood in the box and bolt it to that?  If so, how did you secure the block of wood in the box? Thanks... Just starting to learn."

Sit the pipe where you want to locate it,half fill with hot glue,put in the piezo, fill to the top with more glue.

It's a basic piezo disc from Maplin with twin core screened audio lead replacing the original wires.Sounds great for the cost

Hey thanks Tim! I appreciate it!

Is it Wfret? If so, do a search for Wfret download, and it is on a page called spaceports. I am at work and it won't let me past the link to it.

 

But try http://www.europa.spaceports.com and look about half way down the page.

Tim, I pack all mine in a 36x12x4 box I get from Uline. I wrap the body and headstock in bubble wrap, and stuff the rest of the box with newspaper of brown shipping paper. I have been using the Post Office and most of my shipping charges have been under 15 or so.

 Sorry for the delay in getting back to you. You asked if I had anything interesting to trade.... I am the antithesis of the Dos Equis man. I may be the least interesting man in the world. Lol. Actually, I have just started work on putting together a benefit auction for an injured young man I know. All my good trade stuff is set to be donated to the auction.

If nobody beat me to the cans. I'd be more than happy to buy them from you. I won't be upset if someone beat me to them though. It would be my own fault for being so slow to reply.
