  1. Ah, yes, I see. I'll try a bunch and see what works. Thanks again!
  2. Peter - the 00-090 hex nuts I'm seeing are still nearly 2mm across the flats. Where are you finding correct proportion nuts? I'm wondering if I should just cut the hex ends off my 0.8mm hex bolts and just use those - i've got a lot of .8mm hex nuts...
  3. Yes, thanks! I actually found them last night. I bought some of the 000-120 threaded rod, which is pretty close to 0.8mm. The nuts seem a little big though... Steve
  4. Thanks much, Greg - very helpful. I'll check those suppliers out.
  5. Anyone know where I can get some 0.8mm diameter threaded rod? I know Scale Hardware has 0.8mm diameter hex bolts, but the smallest threaded rod they list is 1mm diameter and I need 0.8mm. Any help appreciated! Thanks!
  6. Cool - hope to have an update soon.
  7. Looks ready to run. Finishes really are amazing - very realistic.
  8. Much appreciated, Michael! Still a long way to go...
  9. I'm gonna do my best, that's for sure, Daniel!
  10. Great stuff, man! Awesome guitars! Steve
  11. Thanks much, brother! And very well said on the way music affects people. I played pro in the '80s in the Hollywood hard rock/metal scene - all original music, trying to get signed. It was a crazy time - incredible experience. I have continued to play and record original music since for my own enjoyment - I started the amp company to continue to stay close to music. It was fun while it lasted, but I just couldn't scale the company while working another full time job. While i was running it, it was a one man show. I designed, built and marketed the amps myself. No way to scale that... 😉
  12. Looks awesome so far - great job! Steve
  13. Engine looks phenomenal! Great job!
  14. Cleaned up some of the solder joints with some sanding sticks:
  15. Made a bit more progress on the chassis this weekend. Really takes some time to get this right, but definitely fun. Still need to clean up some of the solder joints with sanding stick. Pics:
