Thanks DavidL,,that's what I thought was happening.

There was a comment on the forums a couple of days ago warning that the security certificate was being updated so there could be a temporary issue for some people.

Comment by Sleepy John on July 25, 2018 at 6:59am
I'm in ok now,but I've still got the warning every time,no matter which of my devices,phones and lads I use.Probably admin have neglected to update something to do with the site security certificate.

Sleepy John, I had the same problem, but it actually your own computer settings that needed changing. I ended up logging in to my own already logged into 'provider' before it automatically set it up alright.....

Hello All

Well it’s been a while since I posted on here, but I’m pleased to see everyone is still living and making guitars.i was hoping to be fully retired by now but alas not quite there yet. 

I been collecting more tools and old guitars from charity shops ready for a big splurge.

i managed to pick up 6 old electric guitars for 25 quid so lots of parts to go at. I keep getting the notifications of the comments and enjoy reading them.

All the best to everyone I’ll post again when I start my builds.

oh and welcome to all new members
