Made it to the airport on time , of course tsa had to unpack the guitar boxes/cases, I figured they would but still.. And now this waiting waiting I’ll die in this this Casa Blanca… where was I? Oh ya, first flight TV delayed and so I’ll miss second flight, then I’ll miss my ride to the venue:/ But you know what this is the east part of traveling and who cares? While I’m fungling around online I’ll tell you how I made up my latest golpedar One layer of 4oz/yd carbon fiber cloth laid up on a vacuum plate, next time I’ll do two layers or perhaps an insert just where the top gets hammered. Once I unbagged it I didn’t like how the surface looked, I didn’t extract enough of the resin so it was just a touch lumpy here and there. That was three days ago, today I had some time to kill so I took some 400g paper, red scotch brute, the OOOO SW and it cleaned up nice. Next I brushed a thin even layer of heat activated adhesive we use for aircraft fabric and leg it dry. Using a little hobby iron on its lowest setting I just layed the carbon piece there and tacked it down using one layer of paper towel between the cf and the iron cause and to protect the shellac should I get off the edge. Boom, took about 45 seconds, just loosened the strings cause.
