Royal Blue dye on the box, Chinese Red dye on the fretboard, Plain White dye on the neck, fret markers are toothpicks, the tail-piece and hinges are from a caravan cupboard mob.
For the life of me I can't find the nut I made and it's boiling hot out there at the moment so I've called time on it for the day.

Got that right Gary. The nut was one I spent a bit of time on with the remainders of some scrap, to make sure it matched the whole look and feel. My dog wanders in an out of the shed so I've got a sneaking suspicion he's decided it looked better to eat than on my CBG, either that or it's just sitting there in plain view and will remain that way until I've finished the git ;-)
