Welcome! I am looking to re-grow my absolute favorite community here on Lemmy - to kick it off, I'm sharing my first build that I finished in April.
It was a dream come true to finally be able to build up a workshop and try my hands at this. It took 4 months of weekends and the occasional lunch breaks, and I had so much fun, I can't wait to get going on #2 and dive deep into this craft and all it's secrets.
I could just post pics on one of the 'guitars' communities, I'm hoping this community can become a forum for people who really want to discuss the techniques and the process, not just the final product. Please comment or post if you'd like to see the same thing!
Thank you! I did the headstock inlay from scratch, for the fingerboard I bought a set of the trapezoids and just laid them in
That's awesome, you'll get there! I never completed a full project like a kit but I had purchased a scrap heap that was one a guitar from eBay to practice on trying to fix it up, it definitely helps you get ready.
Definitely share some pics here when you finish the partscaster!
