So tiny I barely have room to change my mind.

I've taken over a bedroom in our apartment for my guitar projects. So far all I've done is make tables and a heavy workbench. Maybe I can get to the guitars soon...

Looks good. The basics for building acoustics for sure. I have a bedroom set up as well but just for hand tools. My machines reside in the garage. More moving things around in your setup but certainly fine for what you're doing.

Everything's moving around at the moment! It's like doing a Jenga puzzle, only in reverse. Too much stuff!!

I really have to stop building the shop and start building musical stuff. Maybe after I get that Ryobi sander...


'Twas ever thus. 😎

VtGuitar - My wife of 60 years passed and the kids moved me up to Tennessee. I am sort of like you, just getting re-started. Rebuilding, relocating, re-everything. So I send wishes for you not to get depressed, but to keep your focus fresh and undaunted. So far you look darn near ready to listen to one of your creations! Enjoy.

Thanks for your encouragement. My wife and I have been down for about three weeks with a bout of bronchitis. But we're on the mend. I'm starting work on a building form for a dreadnaught design. As my father in law used to say, "whittle, whittle."

Looks cool! I'm also attempting to build instruments out of a small shop. I'm definitely feeling the "well I only need to make this and then I can start building" but I I've only been at it for a couple months now so I feel like there's a grace period where it's allowable. There really are a lot of things to get, and jigs to make, and tools to setup before you can comfortably start producing stuff, especially in a new space.
