Sorry Spondz, the joke was that the chest is for his first birthday, but he's already nearly three years old. I seem to have missed that deadline.

Years. Twerp Thank you. He'd wave back I'm sure if he was here. He's very keen on waving at everybody at the moment.

The lampost under your fat ass in your profile picture is looking a bit strained.

I am making a simple 6 panel chest for my son's first birthday. He was two and a half middle of this month.....

That explains why the window cill has broken off, you pair sitting on it.

I refer the Honourable Gentleman to the previous comment

I was thinking something stylistically like this: but opaque. So a square cab, with glassy smooth sides and button fixings at the corners. I think it would have to be a skin over a traditional wooden box. Thin perspex rather than structural. As I said, it was only an idea, Rob started it by saying piano grade smooth, which started off me thinking of a glossy piano black cab....

Stupid question, but could you make a cab out of perspex? I'm thinking something like the appearance of a glass tower block where the plates are held with stainless buttons and the like? Or maybe just face a plywood box with thin sheets to make it look like a glass cube. Just wondering really, I'm not going to attempt it

The stumbling block is more the 200€ for something I don't really *need* than whether it has an app for it. Tone Lab is a great little tool though.

Yes, but it means going to Leicester.

Opening the heavily sealed door marked "GAS - do not open your wallet" would I benefit from a B2 Four to replace my B3n? I have no problem with the B3n, and don't really need to change it, but you know how it goes. Newer is obviously better, but is it really in this case?

The main figure is weird enough, but for real nightmare fuel zoom in on the audience...

@steviedee have you got it yet or are you still havering?

No! For 150 notes, if you want it and can afford it then buy it. But then I'm biased towards a pointy 80s headstock

I'm not happy with this at all. Stop posting pictures of beautiful basses! 😉 This is the best I can do...

Nope, no textbook or music stands involved. Oh, you mean I should have had the textbook open in front of me.

No idea if this should be here, or the Singing and Playing thread as an example of how not to do it.

Do you not end up with magnetic screwdrivers this way? It may not be a problem in a woodshop but my dad hates them because they get covered in swarf or filings.

You can't say you haven't been warned 😁 Actually that's not where I am now, I thought I'd documented that as well, but I don't seem to have done. If I find I have I'll link that as well

You really don't want to see my workspace 😜 I did do a build thread on here about a bench if you want the whole gory story. When I get chance (Toddler 😏🙄😳🥰) I'll link them for you.

@Downunderwonder I had exactly the same thought overnight. I can't see how just picking it up by the chainbar would do any serious harm. Certainly you could cut yourself because you are grabbing the sharp bits and it would be a good effort given where the center of balance is on a chainsaw. More than likely he picked up the thing he was cutting and moved it without paying enough attention to what he was doing.

I have the shaped picture disc of Fear of the Dark from, I think, A Real Live One. The B side is supposed to be Hooks in You, but it's actually Tailgunner. No big deal it's a better song anyway. I looked into it to see if it was worth anything but apparently the whole run was wrong, so it's not rare at all!

Chainsaws are terrifying things, or at least, mine scares the bejeebers out of me, but really: "The 64-year-old, who had picked up the chainsaw by the blade to cut a piece of wood,"?

You could always ask @chrismuzz.
