    Semi-hollow Body Bass Guitar - new long term project

    Well a few years ago at the NCWoodWorker annual picnic, I won a book entitled Make your own electric guitar & bass. Steve Coles handed me the book and said do you plan on making a guitar anytime soon? I said no, but I'll take the book anyways. After reading it cover to cover, I got inspired and...

    Brazing Cast Iron pump body possible?

    It's about time to start getting my irrigation system put back together and in working order which means I've now got to address a problem I've been putting off since Jan. Long story short I messed up and didn't fully drain my 1.5 hp well pump before going away for a week, so of course we had a...

    Bessey K body clamp "guides"

    Called these things clamp "guides" because as usual I can not find the paper work that came with the set. Couple of years ago I bought two K body clamp sets on sell from Amazon. They came with these black blocks with slots in them. I remember reading a little of the information. Seems as if...

    Sword, shield, and body armor :)

    Check out this classy body armor that my son found in our recycling bin :) -- it came free with my new $99 router! I made the sword and shield for him last month, but now since he's come up with the armor all by himself, I only need to figure out the helmet! (And no, I cannot produce a 3rd...

    Bessey K body clamps

    Saw the thread about the 40" clamps but I really need more of the shorter clamps. If anyone runs across a sale on these I would appreciate a PM. The 40" are cheaper than the shorter ones right now. I could buy the 40" but for longer panels the added weight and difficulty in handling them is...

    Cleaning glue from K body Camps

    Anyone have suggestions for cleaning Tite Bond glue on K body clamps. Yes, I got a little sloppy and didn't clean them immediately and now after scrapping the glue off there's this nasty black marks that can be lightly sanded off. But was thinking there may be an easier way with some sort of...

    Square body clamps

    Ok, what is everyone's thoughts on which square body or K body (don't know what is correct) clamp you like the best. Personally, I have Jorgenson, Gross Stabil, and Bessey. Of the three, at the moment (haven't had the Jorgies that long), I like the Jorgies the best, the Gross Stabil's second...
