Thicknesser

Post by Ben » Sun May 19, 2013 6:31 pm

Hey everyone!

Just wondering if anyone around North Brisbane has a thicknesser that I could use? Only need it for about 20 minutes max! Happy to give some cash or beer!

All I need to do is run some swamp ash through to get the right thickness for a jazz bass body.

Cheers

Ben

Ben,

I am at Morayfield buddy, if you want to use my little Jet Thicknesser you are welcome. It wont take a joined body though, I think the max is around 30cm wide. Let me know, and we can organise a time.

Cheers

Ben, I'm 1 hour south of the Bris. GPO. I have a 400mm over and under, so you a can face dress if it needs it.

Sat. is best, I try not to make noise on a Sunday. I'll send a PM with my details.

Ben, I see in your profile you play Bass, I have a few of those around. Phil Mailloux lives down the road, I'll try and organize something.
