I wrangle the actual translators and attempt to get them to work, usually failing. I'm lazy as gently caress too though so it works out

I enjoy building guitar from scratch For a couple of months I've been working on a travel-sized one with a walnut neck/stock and a pine body (from a piece of wood from a tree knocked down in my yard by a storm last year). I'm doing it without a truss rod, so I can't do metal strings bc. the tension would warp or crack the neck. So it's nylon strings, which means no ordinary pickups. Instead, I'm installing a piezo pickup in it, which is the same kind of system found in clip-on guitar tuners. It's going to be really good. Only problem atm is that I may have overclamped the neck when i glued it in the body, so now theres a slight but noticeable backbow to it. I'm hoping it won't be a problem and that the string tension will pull it back up a bit...

I don't know anything about musical instruments, but the fact that you built part of it from a knocked down tree in your yard is pretty amazing.

SweetKarma posted:I did a quick Yahoo! Answers search on this poo poo and no, birds are not mammals they are averes or something. Thanks 4th grade teacher. My hobby is making myself feel superior by correcting strangers on the interwebs. Mamals are defined by live birth and having mamary glands to feed their young... do birds do either of those?

To tie in with cool outdoors stuff, a girlfriend left me a few months ago so I picked up being a beach bum and skim boarding. In tan as hell now, and I have noticed many personal health benefits to the physical activity. Also I am very impressed at this hobbies for detecting the retreating avennes from your factory lake. Try bringing this research to light in this thread for peer review?

i clear my apartment with my assalt rifle . but its just for fun its not loaded or if it is i practice decent trigger dicipline. sometimes i point my rifle at cars out my window and see if I can pretend shoot them as they pass (i do pull the trigger for this but i make sure its not chambered. usually i just remember if it is or not). its always good to be prepared for the blue helmets

My hobby is doing unexpected things at random intervals, LIKE yelling EVERY other WORD or walking down a crowded sidewalk and spazzing out while going 'BLEUALLLAUIAARGGHHHHHH!' This will convince the alien monitors that I am defective and unworthy of further study. Also macrame owls.

Thingyman posted:that is legit badass. how is the timbre on them? Pretty good. I build electrics though - so while the wood/body has a definite influence on the tone, much of your mileage still comes from what pickups and electronics you stuff in them and how you align everything. This travel guitar thing is the first overtly acoustic thing I've built and since its meant for travel use, its not overly resonant or loud at all. I really have only a vague idea of what kind of sound its going to have at the moment, though I won't really mind if its really quiet when its unplugged. It probably will be. I've been gathering material for doing an archtop build for a couple years now, but I'm dragging my feet because its a scary project, and I recently broke my favourite chisel...
