I'm pushing pause on my guitar making in order to take care of my aging parents. I have a old Devilbiss parts booth that I bought from someone on this forum and never assembled. It could use a good stripping, and will need a motor. The booth is set up with a fan housing such that the motor is not in the path of the vapor. The booth is available to whomever wants it for free as I've been farming out my finishes. I'm in Washington DC. P.M. me if you're interested.

Hello,
Could I get Joe's info please? I'm looking for rates in VA for an OM body only. I'm a relatively new (7 year builder) that's debating between a spraying booth and that learning curve or farming it out to an experienced pro finisher. French polish is great but not profitable for me right now and that's what I've been doing on the bodies and headstocks, tru oil on the necks
