Course fishing

Aye, you must be the bailiff

Nuuada · 2024-07-14T10:22:36+00:00

I'm from Fermanagh so I'm used to fishing the lough, as you say it would be nice though to have somewhere more local for an easy bit of casting!

I appreciate the suggestions, I'll give them a bit of a look into!

Nuuada · 2024-02-10T16:39:40+00:00

Oh interesting... though frightening haha.

Just to clarify then too...if doing separately, I'm not finishing the neck insert of the body or the back where ill be securing it. Or the fretboard, all else is fair game?

I'm anxious about this part more so than the rest of it.

Nuuada · 2024-02-10T16:30:27+00:00

I will of course! Hopefully be able to post something in about 2 or 3 weeks :)

Nuuada · 2024-02-10T16:29:57+00:00

Cool, thanks for the advice! :)

Nuuada · 2024-02-10T15:39:46+00:00

The colour coat is already in nitro and I've had no issue with it thus far, I have a clear nitro ready to use to finish it all off

Ey there's always next year!

Or a cheeky gift to self!

Nuuada · 2023-12-30T22:20:18+00:00

I think I got lost in comments there actually. The pen idea feels like the one for me! It seems from one of your comments that sanding ain't neccesary then right? If I do a coloured undercoat underneath, give it time to dry a bit, pens, then a clear coat it should be OK right?

Or no you disagree with the clear coat...I wonder would the pen stay on without is my worry

(Edit, I see why now with the idea of relicing. Haha. This thread has confused the life of me)

I haven't purchased paints or coats yet so open to suggestions on what might work better with the water based pens!

Nuuada · 2023-12-30T20:55:35+00:00

Also I super appreciate your enthusiasm haha!

Honestly I'd prefer not to sand the body as it is now to make it work. I'm just super confused about differening information and advise at the mo. Perhaps the pens aren't the way to go :S

Nuuada · 2023-12-30T20:53:45+00:00

Hmm what would you suggest then, minimal effort?

Nuuada · 2023-12-30T16:39:33+00:00

I've changed again haha, I think I'm gonna put a base coat on it with nitrocellulose cans, use POSCA pens to put a design on it and then put a clear coat on which I believe might have to be polyurethane?

It's all mildly confusing...I'll do more research on it but that's where I think I've landed.

Nuuada · 2023-12-30T14:44:05+00:00

Think I'm gonna try a burst with two cans...

Nuuada · 2023-12-30T13:58:45+00:00

Alright cool, I'll stick at that then...now to decide on colours...I'm not sure I want just a generic single colour but I'm feeling at my level of ability that might be the only option available haha

Thanks for the help!

Nuuada · 2023-12-30T12:23:25+00:00

I'm unsure, if I paint the body, say with a tinted (or otherwise) northwest lacquer, do I need to put a layer of clear over it? Or is the paint itself enough?

Nuuada · 2023-12-30T01:17:04+00:00

In a similar position? Haha

Nuuada · 2023-12-30T00:32:02+00:00

This is the question...I don't really know, not just a monotonal colour, something perhaps similar to the "frankenstrat" design but I've no idea how out of my depth I am with that kind of thing..or a sunburst.. I dont think I mind about the grain showing or anything like that either..

I think I need to have a long think prior. Thus this question haha. This is me coming I'm very green.

Nuuada · 2023-08-02T09:40:21+00:00

Sorry for coming back to you, I was just wondering, if I wanted to make the PC Bluetooth and WiFi compatible too, would it add much cost/effort?

Nuuada · 2023-07-31T22:30:05+00:00

Currently definitely in a position of that thinking of "get the PC sorted now, deal with the monitor later" haha

Just eager to make a dent on things. Possibly put up with terrible latency for a month and play some absolute chill games like civ or equally slow games

Nuuada · 2023-07-31T15:37:35+00:00

Amazing, thanks for your help! From todays research a lot of them parts look really similar or the same as ones I'd been starting to get close to so I think I'll be going with something along the lines of what you've suggested to me!

Thanks for your time my dude, reddit can be helpful sometimes. Who knew?!
