When studying to be a carpenter, we had a course where we have to make a sculpture out of scrap wood and off-cuts. So I made a life-sized WALL-E

I don't think I ever shared this on here, but thought you guys might like it. This is a Hobbit-inspired cabinet I made as my final project in school before becoming an artisan. The idea came from Bilbo's bi-folding doors, and I went from there. Full album in the comments.

You guys really seemed to like the Hobbit cabinet I made, so here's a picture to show you the bifolding doors as well as its roughly-Hobbit-sizedness

I always feel like the backs of guitars often look a bit... bland, so I fixed that with this one. A back inlay based on the client's favorite band. Ebony/Flamed maple/copper dust. I really wanna do this sorta stuff again. What do you guys think?

I love playing around with stains and finishes. I tried a very very subtle burst by sanding away more in the middle and gradually less so toward the edges. Initial layer of stain was royal blue and then topped off with a layer of green to give it this turquoise-y color. Thoughts?

[FAN ART] Not my best work, but I thought I'd share the RWBY guitar I made and sent to Miles & Kerry a few years ago. Kind of a forerunner to the AH Guitar from a year back.

Just wanted to share a little something I made back in 2016. A customised RWBY guitar that I sent to Miles & Kerry. Not my best work, but done with very minimal tools and 90% on my living room coffee table.

Because of such a great response to yesterday's post about the back inlay. Here is a picture of the front of that guitar, as a few of you requested. Curly birch (visakoivu) veneer top, bubinga fretboard with maple/ebony inlays.

Progress on the 100% Pine Guitar: It has now been BURNED! This is mostly to stabilize the wood a little more, but it was also a lot fun.

This is actually a concept guitar I made years ago. The concept was the Seven Deadly Sins and this one is Wrath (hence all the pointyness). Walnut/Beech body, Walnut burl top, Maple/Beech neck, Bubinga fretboard. This was the first original body shape I designed as well.

A little while ago, I finished my first ever multiscale (or more finished customising one I had made). This was very _different_ in many ways and surely a learning experience. Birch body, multilaminate Mahogany neck with birch strips, Rosewood fretboard, Curly Birch headstock veneer

Graffiti guitar. Customised an old -97 Ibanez Stagestar a few years back and gave a local artist (3fer) free hands on the paintjob. What do you think?

I keep thinking about this idea: Seeing as I made the AH Guitar for Jeremy, I could make a full build only using two woods that are naturally RimmyTim colored. Purpleheart & Padauk. And then call it the RiffyTim or RimmyShred..... Should I make this happen?

I'm in the process of building a functional guitar by ONLY using pine, as a part of a challenge

Got the neck carve started on the multi-laminate FULL PINE neck and it's looking promising so far. Still a ways to go, but a good start and easy to work.

I don't think I remembered to post a picture of the finished 3-string fretless bass I finished this summer. The player ordered a 5-string headless next, so that should be fun.

What do you guys think about this one? Recently finished it and shipped to her forever home.

And finished this last night: The 100% Pine Guitar. Letting it settle over the holidays and then going back to finishing setup and intonation, but man... what a ride it has been. Thanks to everyone who followed along!

Just picked this up after a long while. The first guitar I built from scratch a good while back and even with all the mistakes and issues it had, it plays like a dream. Chambered birch body, Ash top, Maple/Beech multi-laminate neck, Rosewood fretboard. With a 28 scale length, this thing is a beast!

The ALL PINE guitar is coming along nicely. That was probably the EASIEST fretting I've ever done. Little bit of glue in the frets to help out as well. Control holes drilled up. The neck is shaped and roughly sanded, onward to side inlays and tuner holes.
