Hi! I'm sure I've heard you say that you can cut piezos in two and they still work fine. Does it affect them at all, so that if i cut one really really small (trying to encase one in a wooden bridge), it wouldn't lose any quality? Thanks!
Thank you for the info Ben.
I have used waterslide paper in the past but thought the stickers could be a quicker option (but not if they still look like a sticker when applied) - I guess I'll stick to waterslide paper (unless I learn to airbrush).
Regards,
David
Hi Roosterman,
I saw the link to the vinyl stickers - could I ask you how well do they apply to a CBG and can you varnish over them so they last longer? Also when they come off do they peel off clean or leave a load of glue?
Thanks,
David

Hi Ben, I'm fine thanks. Sold quite a few cbgs lately and a couple of baccy tin amps. I watched you vid on spinning a cone - great stuff, made it look dead easy and delivered in your natural entertaining style of humour. Enjoy your rest. Take care.
Hey Ben, you been taking bromide or something? You used to be Randy Rooster :)

Thank you for the nice comment, mate! You make me feel honored by your praise! I had this idea, and some photographs just waiting for an idea to come into fruition. You know what that full moon does to people...LOL :-)
Thanks for the wiring advice. I was looking at some schematics that were telling me to use different pots to the ones I had already bought, and I wondered if it really mattered that much.
hey bro i hope things are going ok fer ya. just wanted ta stop by and ask What is a corker? new term fer me as i am still learning ya see. but i,m sure it means something good cause you usually have good comments fer me.one other thing i would like fer you to tell me that you found out something positive about yer nightmare that happened. i believe that folks that take things are not justly punished. so if i was a judge in a court system,fer the theives i would have a hardwood cutting table and a hatchet right beside my bench and make folks in the courtroom watch as i cut theives fingers off. sounds mean but i would only take one finger per thief so they wouldnt want to come back to my courtroom. take care my brother i.ll talk wit ya later on.
