Woke up nice and early at 7 am, which would be our 5am so I was definitely feeling it. Waking up to the gorgeous view sweetened it a little though. We wanted to catch a full day of Dunedin and had to make our way up north by the end of the night. Firstly, we […]

Today was all about getting the fretboard inlay in. I firstly started off creating some saw dust from the end of my fretboard so that I can mix it in with the epoxy to get a similar colour when its filled in. Once the epoxy was ready, I placed the bunny in and clamped it […]

The sides were placed into the jig ready for me to plane down evenly so that the back can be put on. When we made the sides we left quite a bit of leeway in case of any measurement mishaps. This was Tor’s amazing inlay work. He is sanding down the fretboard to get the […]

I didn’t really maximise my day as I had decision making issues haha. Took me forever to decide what I wanted so that I could then progress. Above was the rosettes I narrowed down to – I ended up asking you guys for a lot of help throughout the day and it was amazing. Everyone’s […]
