The fun thing is that when i do manage to fine reclaimed stuff, like the piece used for the big lintel below, the size of it determines the form of the building. It will be supporting the green roof so need to be big enough not to sag when I open up the front.... all will be revealed.
In my old wooden cabin up in the hills of south east London I make banjos, canjos, cigarbox guitars and other things that go twang. Every instrument is fully hand made in the traditional way with a minimal use of power tools and usually using reclaimed timber (that way i can use exotic hard woods and sleep well at night). So if you are interested in buying a high quality unique instrument keep checking here or contact me if you would like to commission something. flatfootjohnny@hotmail.com

new workshop
I was hoping to use mostly reclaimed timber for the workshop but this
can be pretty tricky to hold of in the right lengths and i would also
need a van to collect as no one seems to deliver. This being the case i
have resorted to using new stuff but with as much reclaimed as i can
scavenge locally.
