Model Epiphone acoustic guitar
« on: April 28, 2012, 08:05:25 AM »
Hi all,

I made this little guitar for my Nephew who's eighteen today, it's made from Aluminium and I polished the finished model with a similar technique as Stainless polishing...this is my first time polishing Aluminium and wasn't sure of the result but there's no difference really to polishing Stainless....I drilled and tapped M3 Allen cap screws as the tuning screws and you can see the end result......


Also I could sure do with advice with a topic I raised here http://www.machsupport.com/forum/index.php/topic,21435.0.html and thanks in anticipation.....
