How difficult is it to build a guitar?

Thursday, September 2nd, 2010

I’m planning on doing this for my senior project. Is it just buying and putting together parts? Say if I wanted to copy a certain model, do I have to buy the body or can I make it? It’s kinda hard finding the body I’m looking for xD (ESP Horizon III). Same with the headstock. How would I go about painting it? I’m probably asking for too much but I don’t want to build a low-quality guitar xD

Tuesday, November 17th, 2009

I need an estimate for painting and installing a new redwood fence 5 ft. height by 32 ft. long. What do contractors charge per square foot? or is it linear feet? and my fence needs one primer coat, 2 finish coats of white paint and chalk all joints. Installation of fence must use stainless steel screws, and gavanized nails because we live near the beach area. Please submit your bids, and we live in Hawaii.

Friday, November 13th, 2009

I have a Purdy Nylox Sprig.
Please do Not tell me go and buy those sponges, those are crap.

Do you have to allow a wood fence to weather before staining/painting?

Thursday, November 12th, 2009

I am having a wooden privacy fence put up with the standard lumbar for fencing that is treated. I read somewhere that you should let the wood "weather" for up to a year before staining or painting it. Is this true? If so, whats the reason why you have to?

Thanks!
I know it will turn that greyish color over time if nothing is done…..
nice! thanks for the info/tips you guys!
