Australian/New Zealand Luthiers Forum

Hi guys. I hope I am in the right spot for this and that it is OK to ask. I will often use an ABS binding from the likes of Stewmac. I like it. Anyway, I have been getting (buying) the glue from a friend which is fine but I am not sure it is fair for me to keep getting more when this is not his core...

You know what worries me Martin? You found this site!

Greg

Thanks Lacrombie. Have taken your info and Lilian's advise. E-mail sent. Now I will wait. I will keep the forum todate on the "Buyer beware" thread.

Chalks

Yey! Chris is a marathon runner!

You know what? I don't get it. Isn't this whole argument about being able to take back what I have said in a post just the same as if I said it in person???? Maybe we should just take responsibility and think before submitting a post. Before you click the Submit button click Preview. Read what you h...

Don't really know what to say Bob!

Bugger the democracy.

Hi Guys, Well time for things in my head to settle down. I have pasted into a couple of forums. In haste sure, but I let off some steam anyway. Jeff, yes the US forum knocked it back immediately. No probs. Lilian, I think I will do as you have said. Martin, Too late. I am not gunna get bogged down i...

Onya Kim. He probably is laughing. He ain't gunna get rich off it, but it will buy a beer or two. Hope he chokes on it.

Hey there. Wow! Martin. Don't know what to say. I didn't do this for sympathy, more for the good of some other unsuspecting sucker. I thank everyone for the support.

Martin, I will not stop because of this bloke. I think I might copy and paste my rant in another forum or two. Any suggestions?

Chalks

Hi everyone. Well I said I would update you all as things progressed. Things are not going too well. I fell into the childish act of calling the dipstick names. :oops: They are true, but it is something a school boy does, not someone my age. I will totally understand if the moderators choose not to ...

Thanks Lilian and everyone else.

I will let you know what happens over the next few weeks.

Hey thanks Guys (gender non-specific). :) Heaps of replies. Jim: I bought the back probably two years back and Bob in Tassie will be disapointed if he reads this. I had some pressure to build and just as soon as I started getting hardware in and getting organised, everything went south. At the time ...

Hi Guys, I am sorry. I don't mean to be random in my replies or rude. I am in and out of stuff which can keep me away for sometime. It's good that you've asked, as it's a hard lesson to find a bad vendor when you're new to the game. Ooops! :oops: Too late by 400 bills. I really feel stupid. After no...

Hi Guys, How suitable is Blackwood as a neck. An archtop back I have has been quite active. Moving around, but it seems to have settled. Another colleague was asking me what I thought of this as he was about to build and use TB for the neck and was a little apprehensive. I have no experience with it...

Hi everyone. I have been away for some time. By some of the banter still raging on here, nothing changes. Great! Just like your favourite spanner. Feels good.

I am not sure where to ask this so I will apologise now.

Does anybody know of and have had dealings with Alaskan Tonewood?

Chalks

Wow. Very cool place to laze around. I think I have basically done this. But mine is a mixture of Hesh's and Alen. In a library with the kids in Perth years back. Saw a book and thought, "bugger it, why not?". It took years and years of saving dollars here and there, losing it to bills, starting aga...

Hi Bob. I will ask him, though by all accounts he seemed very ignorant, but very apprehensive at the potential loss. Understandable. He did say he tried to call Australian Customs many times from the UK. No return calls or something like that. Maybe time zone issues. He is here now so it should be m...

You guys fairdinkum break me up. Thanks for all the feedback. I have passed it on and I hope two things come of it. 1. He is successfully able to reaquaint himself with his Brazilian loves, and 2. He joins you people here. I had the pleasure of holding one of his he just recently brought in. Spruce ...

I dunno. Maybe that is really how it gets those beautiful deep colours and rich screamer of a voice (trying to get out).
A small price to pay I say.

Passed on Jim. Thanks

Big condom Pete. Maybe more like an above ground pool liner. Might need some dipping sauce.

Greg

Hmmmm. Risky

Thanks Graham. Thanks Martin. I will pass it on.
