  1. What's the technical thinking behind these enclosures, what does having the speaker obscured behind a slit between two angled sides do?
  2. Or possibly just veering... It's more a question for @andyjr1515 but rather then PMing I thought I'd ask in case the answer is interest to anyone else. Have you tried veneering over a veneer? I'm idly thinking whether it would be possible to have a highlight line in a darker wood between the body and the top veneer.
  3. Sorry @Andyjr1515, I was only taking stills. I didn't think to video it.
  4. It was lovely to see you all again, many thanks for coming, there wouldn't have been a bash otherwise! I hadn't appreciated the bank holiday which may have impacted on numbers slightly. Especial and heartfelt thanks to @Andyjr1515, @Jabba_the_gut and @Norris for agreeing to speak to us and give a little insight into how they do things. How to top that next year!
  5. Just thought I'd put this up, I don't remember seeing anything in the rules to say civil engineering can't be posted, but I'm not going to diarise it here. Anyway the point was that after yesterday's talks at the MBB5, here's another example of it's probably not the right way to do it, certainly it's not the professional way, but it worked for me. Even civil engineering needs clamps!
  6. And it begins! Bass players are even talking to each other instead of having a slap-off 😂
  7. It's BASH DAY!!!!!! And a splendid morning for it too See you all later.
  8. It's next week! *squeeeee!* With 8 people on the list, it's going to be very quiet...

    BOOKS!

    Still some left. Full list on application, but might as well be considered complete.
  10. Red or yellow to show through the grill? Unless the grill cloth is a close weave in which case you won't see it anyway.
  11. Have some pictures. It'll be going to the tip fairly soon.
  12. 118 views and no-one wants the poor lonely thing. Price reduction of a sort, £40 including posting, discount for collecters unless it costs the postage in petrol You can collect from the MBB5 if you give enough notice. Last bump before it goes to the scam infested waters of eBay.
  13. Very naughty reply with pictures not a bump bump. Feel free to censure me and I'll go and stand in the corner.
  14. It's best if it's at least musically related if not specifically for bass.
  15. That's the general idea. One object each would suffice.
  16. The little MBB5 Announcement. Assuming enough interest and random tat to dispose of, there will be a raffle again.
  17. The big MBB5 Announcement. Three of Basschat's most illustrious luthiers will be speaking at the MBB5 during the afternoon. Timings will be announced on the day. The topics are loosely going to be: Andyjr1515 - How to finish your bass and avoid gluing veneer to the dining table. Jabba_the_gut - How to make a bass out of anything, including recycled sawdust. Norris - Tools, and how to not to cut your fingers off.
  18. Go on then... 1. Si600 - Nothing. You've already seen all my stuff and if the weather is nice I want to get the bike out 2. 3. 4. 5.
  19. The room is booked until 1700. There is going to be an Announcement later regarding the bash. Also, feel free to bring part projects, as long as they're relevant. I'm happy to look at partly restored Group B rally cars but it doesn't really fit
