Hi guys, I just finished this box guitar.  I have years of craft woodworking experience, a fairly complete small shop, and lots of odd pieces of wood I keep for special projects.  Except for the poplar neck, all wood came from my stash.  The soundboard is 1/8" mystery crate wood  I edge glued two pieces to get the 8x12 size I wanted.  I liked the circular saw blade and planing marks, didn't try to sand them out.  The sides are 1/2" pine from old drawer parts.  The back is 1/4" luan plywood.  I laminated the neck top with 1/16" walnut veneer topped by a 1/*" mystery wood fret board, to add stability to the poplar neck and to add string relief.  The nut is a piece of black micarta, very hard.  I put a 1/8" scrap of brass rod beside the nut to act as a "zero fret".  That worked fine, gives me the right string clearance at that end.  The bridge is a piece of deer leg bone (cannon bone) that's hollow inside.  That works fine but needs more adjustment, I'm going to put a piece of brass rod across the top.  Tuners, fret wire, strings and basic piezo/jack harness all came from C.B. Gitty.  I took a tip from some guy on you tube who makes piezos.  He insulates them in a bottle cap with hot glue.  Given the rustic nature of the soundboard, I decided this git was going to look like a poor-boy made by beavers.  The fret board markers are not inlays, they are painted on with white acrylic paint.  The new moon logo was outlined with a carving tool and then painted in.  I'm happy with it.  I think it sounds great.  I showed it to a musician friend and he's commissioned me to make one for him.  I'm retired, this might be a profitable hobby.  I'm posting pictures, I hope they show up.  Thanks for reading, Don Craig, Saranac, NY.
