First coat body front
Admittedly not actually day 2 – a week after day 1 and a week ago today. Not really got the hang of the whole internet immediacy thing yet. Anyway here’s what it looks like after a coat of oil and wood stain. So it’s a mixture of walnut wood stain and boiled linseed oil so it looks old and smells like cricket. Like I imagine Geoffrey Boycott does.
First coat body back
Did the back first just in case anything went badly wrong but it all went pretty well so far. I’ve got quite a few more coats to do but the longer that takes the longer I have before I have to learn how to solder and do the wiring. Here are some more photos.
