Winter Build Off 2018 - Walnut Free For All

[Beej]

My wife just read that over my shoulder and said a few things that even the TB curse-word filters would not have been able to autocorrect.

Then she very helpfully offered to divorce me if that would help free up some time...

Must be great to have such a supportive better half...

Surely she has a hidden weakness, somewhere...

Surely...

Surely...

oh yeah, and it's not really even hidden. Shoes, boots... she has a problem...

I just realized that I never linked to my thread so here we go:

Winter Build-off 2018: It had to be walnut...

 

[Jisch]

Are there going to be any standards for the final submission? I'd like to get moving on putting stuff together, but I don't want to waste time on something that doesn't fit the format.

Yes,

We will do it the same as last year. I'll ask people to "stage" their entry, listing things about their and some completed pics as their entry. I will take that page and serve it up in the voting page.
I'll repeat the format we used last year. If you need to know now, I'll post a link to the format a little later tonight

Again, like last year, assembled and gig-able is the criteria for entering.

For those that might not get their instrument completely done, (like getting a proper finish) this provides you an opportunity to enter the build off voting.
In this case, we ask that you refrain from posting pics of continued work on your instrument until voting is over.

I'll be back a little later tonight

Cheers

 

[Scoops]

OK, I'm back.

Here's how I created the voting page using your submission link
Winter 2017 Bass Build off - Voting Final

If you go to any one, you can see the format we used. Anything close to this will be acceptable.

I'm going to have to bow out this year. Just too much going on in my personal life recently, and I have zero chance of meeting the deadline. Maybe next year...

Sorry that this is the case.

Take care of yourself as you are more important that this buildoff

 

[RBS_Johnson]

Thanks! I`m not giving up on my bass, just putting on the backburner for a while.

Thanks! I`m not giving up on my bass, just putting on the backburner for a while.

Looking forward to seeing it when it's done. Take care.

Sorry to hear that life has, temporarily, gotten in the way of your build.....

Hope that all settles down soon and look forward to seeing pics of your bass at a later date.......

Bummer man. I'm doing the same, barely got started....don't have any decent stretches of time to do anything productive. Haven't even finished my mock up or made up my blanks...

 

[Scoops]

I really like how these builds are coming to a close drool

 

[reverendrally]

Hard to get walnut down here. Will these do?

 

[rojo412]

If you build a bass out of those, you have my vote!

 

[ctmullins]

Hahaha! You’re nuts.
