What's on your workbench?

Current in-process projects. The 3 custom JEM cloth top 7 strings are for a friend, the crackle reverse neck universe is mine.

That's quite the spray booth... is that also used for car stuff?

I had my dads 30ish years old Strat on the bench today. He wanted a battery box since the guitar will get a EMG Gilmour pickup set.

Wasn't happy with the finish on my Ironbird, so I sanded the old finish off and did some staining today.

If anybody is looking for quality, lots of effort, outstanding finishes, beautiful work, skip this post. If you're looking for fast, essentially free, minimal tools, minimal materials, minimal effort (12 cuts & 4 screws) read on.

It took me longer to do the math, figure out what would fit on my miter saw and find left-over, knot-free, 2x6 pieces, than it did to actually make the stands.

Given that a 2x6 isn't actually 2" x 6", and there's round-off error, this makes 2 sets of 2 amp-stands (even allowing that the 2x6 was 5.5" wide)

Materials used:

• 2 - ≈10" pieces of 2x6
• 4 - 2-3/4" cabinet screws
• 4 - Healthy squeezes of glue
• 4 - strips of painters tape

They will get a coat (or two) of spray paint and high friction rubber feet, when I get a chance.

doing a test crackle before I work on my Jackson Gus G star. I kind of want bigger cracks on the Gus G.
