| The fretwire comes in a convenient coil which I snip into frets. |
 |
| With a triangle file, I bevel the fret slots to ease entry of the fret |
 |
| Banging home the frets- possibly the most fun thing to do in this whole process |
 |
| The concrete floor is the perfect substrate since it don't bounce at all |

| Now the ends are cut off - eye protection is very, very important |
 |
| Serious eye protection |

I love these! I'm also really happy that the bits of the guitar lounge around with you, drink your beer, etc. Which vampire movie is it anyway?
Not a classic, unfortunately: "Underworld" but fun nonetheless.
I know what you mean about me living with these bits and pieces around. When the guitar starts living with you, Bob, it will be easy to feel that I am part of the guitar, too. It's easy for me to see in the things I make a reflection of what I am about, how I am feeling, how well my mind is working and it's fun to muse about that, you know?
Serious pose: We must ALL give a little BLOOD for our ART now and then if it PLEASE the MUSE.
this is a great post
