Back to school, back to school.....

Well this month I started taking the welding program at Mohawk College.

This course runs through until May and should get me my all position SMAW, Flat Mig and Flat Tig tickets as well as my Blueprint reading cert.

Here are the welds from the last week to show my progression.

Another homemade guitar

Just a quick test drive of the LP Junior i built. It was a kit guitar and I had to make some changes for it to even look remotely correct.

It's an all mahogany set neck with a Gretsch style humbucker. I hand cut the pickgaurd because the supplied on was aweful. It also has the correct style knobs and bridge which where not supplied with the kit. The bridge included would not work with the holes drilled for the posts. At it's rear most position it could not be intonated. However using a proper wrap around bridge made everything work correctly.

Here is a quick and dirty clip of it. Ignore the playing I just learned the song that day.
