01 / 07What should I make for you?
Every piece starts as raw wood and a few thousand volts.
02 / 07How big?
Approximate is perfect. I’ll confirm exact dimensions with your quote.
Guitar kits use one standard full-size body, so this step is already set. Just continue.
Not sure yet? Leave it blank and you’ll figure it out together.
03 / 07Choose your wood
Pick by color. I’ll match it to the best wood I have in the shop as I design it with you.
Body wood depends on the kits available; pick the color look you want.
04 / 07Pick your epoxy
I mix my own pigments, so nearly any shade is possible. Pick a color family (up to two), then tell me the exact shade if you have one in mind.
05 / 07Edge, shape & handle
Three quick choices: the edge, the outline and the handle. Then any extras.
Guitars start from a quality unfinished kit. I burn and pour the body, then assemble the guitar. I don’t carve or shape bodies, so pick the style you like and I’ll find a kit to match.
Edge
Outline
Coin slot rows
Coins stand up in shallow slots cut into the wood. Most boards look best with 2–3 rows, so each coin gets room to be seen. These boards show off your favorites rather than hold every coin you own; go bigger if you want more rows.
Burn coverage
The neck itself isn’t burned. Adding the headstock changes the quote.
Handle Shown on one end of the board
The handle is built into this shape, traced whole from my template.
