How did the weekend go?
Here's a bit of bling for a dull rainy Monday morning (here anyway) - second coat of Art Resin Epoxy drying.
Enjoy!

The name catgut is confusing. There are two explanations for the mix up.

Catgut is an abbreviation of the word cattle gut. Gut strings are made from sheep or goat intestines, in the past even from horse, mule or donkey intestines.

Otherwise it could be from the word kitgut or kitstring. Kit meant fiddle, not kitten.

I got the back onto the rims of both a Bocote Tenor Uke and a Bocote Parlor.

Managed to bend a set of ziricote sides with a Venetian cutaway for a 12 string with no cracks.

I'm building my 50th acoustic guitar right now. After a 2 year hiatus as I built up the new shop. This one is a sort of proof of concept guitar as I learn the workflow of the new shop.
