Where still in the process of organizing server switches and a few other technical details. An announcement will be made in a week or two inviting donations :) PS: Don't donate to the old thread...Bob will take off to Tasmania with the money and blow it all on whiskey. Is the Donate thread still ac...

G'day Rod Get in touch with these blokes https://www.luckyfret.com/ They were originally called the Vintage Guitar Boutique and I bough an Gretsch resonator from them about four years ago. They're not luthiers but given the fact that they had lots of vintage Martins and Gibsons as well as heaps of e...

Very tasty Tele Jim. Love the faux scratchplate.

Might be Wattle.

Bob, just want to thank you for setting this forum up and having things running ever so smoothly. I wish you good luck with your future adventure, it must be an exciting prospect. If you ever feel the need to come to the other tip of the world hunting for barrels I can take you on a guided tour to ...

I don't think any back that is running off the quarter on the outer edges could be called AAAA.

Thanks for the kind words everyone . I have absolutely no regrets about my decision to call it a day and I'm sure the forum will continue in much the same vein as it has over previous years.

Hi Everyone I'm retiring from luthiery on July 12th. Why July 12th? Well, the property on which my workshop resides has been sold and the new owners are moving in on that day. The strength in my hands has also deteriorated to the point where I feel it's dangerous to be around sharp things that rotat...

I trust you didn't swear Rod.

What a bummer.

Who needs NBN?

Julian's already booked it.

That'd be the Cray.

Everything's been rolled over. Speed test indicates I'm now getting 100MB up speed which is about twice as fast as it was before so I'd be interested if anyone see's an improvement in responsiveness of the forum.

I think tomorrow may be the day we swap over to the new plan so the forum may become unavailable for a short period.

Please sand by and create sawdust in the interim.

Hi Folks Emails can now be sent from the board. There was a change in the security settings of a new version of PHP, which is the programming language with which the forum is programmed, which restricted where emails could be sent. I've hacked some lines of code in the email send functions of the fo...

Looks like it'll happen later this week.

Got a text saying that an inspection would occur on the 9th to see if the premises is suitable for a cable connection. WTF. I've had an existing cable connection here for 15 years.

Hi Everyone There may be interruptions over the next few days as I'm swapping the internet service to a business plan. This will mean getting a new IP address which I will have to update in DNS. (Domain Name System) It can take up to 48 hours for the new DNS entry to propagate around the planet so i...

I've changed the bracing pattern Weissies to reflect my practices with 6 string guitars. I've also used the traditional bracing and the Christmas tree bridge. Both have worked out fine and they are all still in shape after a few years stringing up. I think Dave White might have done one with really ...

I used Davis pearl glue in the 80's . It was all you could get back then. Seemed to work ok.

Hi Wayne

What browser are you using?

Hi Bruce

Try clearing the browser history, then log out then log in again.

Hi Mark

I had the drop down menus as well the first time I logged on.

Clearing the browser history, then log out then log in again seemed to fix it.

My clock is OK. Check the settings in your profile.

Hi Folks I've updated the forum software this morning so a few things might appear a little different but at first glance it looks much the same. If you find something isn't working post it here and I'll see if I can fix it. You'll notice that I've removed most of the vendor forums. A lot lot of the...
