Hello mate,

                   thanks for accepting the friend request, as for what's next, I'm not sure yet, I'm part way thru building a cigar box clock with a lamp on top. But today I had to go off shopping for birthday party stuff for my grandson who's 11 tomorrow! I only have to wire it up now and add a final touch or two, hope to get it done in the morning before the party. I'll stick a pic or two up and see what you think!

cheers for now,

Loved the new track Mayday - it sounds like its got a Beetles Sgt Pepper  twist to it.

yep busy busy...better than having nothing to do!

At 12:33am on February 27, 2012, bemuzic said…

cool, look forward to hearing more.

  I'm doing a song with my cousin at the moment. She wrote a song and asked if I'd do a bit of CBG on the end...it's ended up with me doing CBG, some bass, a beat and some backing vocals so far....then I might do some glockenspiel, maybe tambourine, clapping..and mixing it,lol!! I'm enjoying it though!

At 12:23am on February 27, 2012, James said…

great song, im  following you  on sound cloud now

At 11:50am on February 26, 2012, bemuzic said…

Mayday, Mayday!!! Good collaboration...I like how the CBG builds up

Hey Smojo, Mayday sounds great, nice playin' and a catchy hook, it can't fail to please.

yeah man-lovin them photos-especially the sepia ones-and the black frame-is that part of the process? it'd make great album artwork and suchlike.

Hi Smojo,  I don't think so, my wife is ill. I'll know more Thurs orFri.'Boxstock' was great, just what the doctor ordered for me.

Take care, Graham.

i think getting the cutters right is the key, when you change them or sharpen them it might take you a few goes to set them right. i always do a test on some scrap first. you need a solid drill as well i bolt mine down when im using it, because of the centrifugal force of the bit. Don’t get the copy get the real one the copy’s tend to suck the wood up. I also use a small wedge or tilt the platform a small amount so only the one edge of the plain is cutting. That will keep the cut cleaner.  there is normally a small amount of clean up to do, but not a great deal. Go on youtube and type in;
