This could be git related or not. So, what's on your workbench at the moment?

I have 4 scarf joint necks in different stages of work.

A 25" scale pine 5 string neck for a Banjo-Res, A 25" scale Red Oak neck for my 6 string Strat-Res build, A 24 & 1/2" scale Red Oak neck for my 6 string Double Cut Tele build and a 27" scale 6 string Baritone Conversion neck for a Modern Strat body I have.

Whenever I go printer shopping, I look at the ink for it and the price before I buy the printer.

Those refill kits only work a couple times because the jets clog with use and the cheaper already refill cartridges can be a bit of a roll of the dice. 

Open the door and place a hand on each side of the window, griping the window and push upwards while someone pushes the up button. If that doesn't do it, you'll need a new motor. Could also be that the motor just needs new brushes.

Window is down inside the door. I know my limitations and impatience. Best to leave this up to folks who know what they are doing. It's always been easer and cheaper to let someone do it. Way cheaper than having someone first fix what I broke trying to do it. : )

Yeah that's going to require taking the door apart.

I spent 14 years rebuilding Alternators, Generators, Starters, lawnmower starters, pump motors, windshield wiper motors and window motors and wiring automotive and heavy equipment. Dump trucks were the worst to work on. Always had a bunch of jack legged work done, driver always in a big hurry and enough dirt covering everything to fill a grave. I take that back, the worst thing to work on was a garbage truck.

Kit build faux Gretsch bass.

That looks very good so far Jerry.

Those types of kits(hollow body/semi-hollow body) can be very hard or tedious. How has it been for you? And is it a good kit to get?

This will be a 3 string 27" baritone, electric/ acoustic. Applied teak oil on the box after the pic was taken. Looking forward to hearing how this turns out.

That looks great Lonman.

thank you Paul.

Getting started on another cookie tin reso. I have made only 2 tin reso's and I really enjoyed them both. Elsinore is a 1922 frying pan inspired build I made for my mom and a square tin I made and later sold. I love the sound of both so decided I needed to build another tin. This will be a 4 string with piezo, a coffee tin bottom, oak neck and fretboard. Oh yea, springs. I cannot seem to stop using them if a build is for acoustic. I just love the sound.

Looking great and I know what you mean about the springs.

I had a Elsinore when I was 12, but it was a 50cc Elsinore. ;)

Wife wanted log slices for the base of some table centerpieces for a dinner thing she is helping with.  The pieces are about 1.5" x 12" around. Trying to figure out how to smooth the chainsaw cuts, finally tried the angle grinder and came up with this.  The grinding wheel ate the wood pretty fast and toasted it a bit.  She liked it and it was pretty quick to do.
