Good idea about the spindle sander. I might have to make nice with the HS shop teacher - take him a new computer or something - I see Grizzly has one for $130 or so, but that is above my limit...
Today I ordered way too much from Stew-Mac and some Keystone pickups. The necks are on the way. Things are falling together.
Also went out and drilled this hole that I forgot yesterday.
It would be a little hard to wire up without it. The putty knife is there to protect the surface from the drill bit.
Thanks again for all of the good ideas and warm fuzzies.
Project will be on hold until binding supplies get here...and with 3 band jobs and a football game next weekend I doubt that I'll get much done on these.
But it does keep me out of the bars...
