I`m suppossed to take a few guitars to an outdoor thing this weekend.I would also like to take parts of a guitar were working on .Maybe do a brace carving demonstration.All my guitar parts live in and are glued up in a humidity controlled area.Any dust creating operations are done in the shop,which has heat and air but no humidity control.Then right back to control they go.This weekend the temperature is going to be 55 to 60 degrees with humidity around 65 to 68 %.It`s pretty much an all day thing.Maybe too much exposure? Opinions please.
James

James, As long as they're glued up before hand and given proper acclimation afterwards.I think you'll be allright providing it doesn't rain on them. gaah :) I would think it's much better takeing to a more humid place than a drier one. ;)

Everything is already glued. And was done so in controlled humidity.We are going to be under cover so I think we`ll be fine also.Thanks for the response.
