Some short vids documenting various parts of the build progress.

This may not be the best way in the world to build basses but it is the way I worked it out.

Will try to keep it interesting and will do a new vid when there is something worth the time. A great deal of the work is not that great to watch time lapse or otherwise.
Sanding is just sanding boring even in fast forward.

Great work, really interesting to watch :)

Can I ask, is there a reason why you do so much routing freehand, vs using a router table?

Also the super-fast bandsawing made me wince a bit, I kept expecting a bit of your finger to fall off! :lol:

Nice. You make it look very easy. A master at work. I remember my experience with a rasp for instance. I was sweating buckets.

Not very exciting I am afraid,finish sanding dull but important.

Great, thanks for doing these!

The attention to detail is amazing - really illustrates the difference between a mass produced CNC instrument and a handmade one.

This is fantastic Alan. I'm really loving watching this as it gives a great insight into how a top quality hand finished instrument is produced.

Think I'm off into the shed at the weekend.....

;)
