Flatfoot Johnny: Workshop stuff continued... (thickness sander adjustment)

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

Workshop stuff continued... (thickness sander adjustment)

A simple little mechanism for adjusting the height of the feed table thus determining the thickness of the timber being sanded.

The piece of timber shown is a strip of Edwardian mahogany which will be used as one of the side of my archetop ukulele project.

Coming soon!!

Archtop uke progress,
gourd banjos and gourd ukulele builds,
3 "modern" banjo builds (ie with truss rods and head tensioning),
Banjo ukulele builds using reclaimed materials
1930s Parlour guitar restoration
