Hey John,
Not much here actually. I got sick with a wicked cold day after i got home from work, which then passed from me to each consecutive kid.....LAME :P weather has been tauntingly great this R-n-r, Not like the lousy rainy summer we endured. I did just begin winterizing Bessie (the clipper) today and realized that I never posted the pictorials of my radiator hangar modz. :-\ Looks I got some camera time comming up. I go to work tomorrow night unfortunately............ :'(
Asside form the above lameness I have begun building an electric bace guitar while at work. origionally intended to be made from ply, pine, oak, and other north slope common materials, I was shown the secret slope stash of ancient MAHOGANY!!!!!! ??? :o ;D
THis down time project has been consuming my mind recently.....I will have alot of downtime when the temp reaches -35deg ambient....which = coldweather equipment shutdown, SInce I run a loader, I wont have much to do but hang with the carpenters.....so I thought a ghetto guitar was in order....the carpenters surprised me with their secret stash, which required a different approach to the build..... ::)
Home made instrument building is one of my many passions since highschool.....I have been obsessing ever since, and researching:
Here is some of the types of instruments Im interested in building:
