Images and short descriptions of designs, experiments, ideas, and other projects. Saturday, October 31, 2009. Hardboard - not for gluing. After a year of using my narrow bedside table. The glued joints failed during a quarrel between our cat and dog. I was surprised to find the surface of the hardboard gave rather than the laser-cut edges. Built in 2005 to augment my Aguilar. GS 112. I used a Carvin. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile. Appleblock: Cycle Designs and Ideas.

Images and short descriptions of designs, experiments, ideas, and other projects. Saturday, January 9, 2010. SX Bass Project Part 4 - reshaping the headstock. First step is to mark the tuner.

I took an additional photo using the x-ray function on my camera so I could see the back of the G tuner to prevent designing a shape that encroaches into the tuner plate area. What, your camera doesn't have an x-ray funtion? The final mock up. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile.
