This was the first tweed I did, I'm aiming for a less orange colour this time

Re: Projects in the pipeline thread!
Cheers bud got to keep sane while fixing windows and guttering - this gives me a nice break while glue sets or paint dries My little homebrew vibrolux has earned a proper tweed cab after approx 8 years of sounding good in an old pine box.WellyBlues wrote:Wow. Talented you are.

Definitely less Donald Dollhands this time... It wasn't that orange IRL. and it did have my blood lacquered into it - slipped with the stanley knife.Cdog wrote:Crikey saw that pic and thought youd already finished! Looking sharp mate. Not going for donald trump orange this time then?
As this one is mine, I'm probably going relic, just too experiment.
