Keep yer tools sharp! That way you can use more of your strength guiding them AWAY from your body rather than forcing the cut!!!

Hi Guys,

She is lacquered at last!
I do hope that you like the photos. I'm waiting on the peg heads being machined at the mo.

Kind regards,

Dave. :D

Dave -

Now THAT's more like it!!!!!!! Wood, Wood, and MORE Wood! The contrast between the two is just gorgeous!

Got just one question: - How are ya gonna compliment that beauty with a fretboard that won't ruin the overall effect?

Wonder how veneers of the same woods would work. Since you're an inlay man, you should be able to come up with a real winner.
