Making tuning keys from upcycled mother of pearl disks taken from an old handbag, Ben Crowe the [ Ссылка ] master luthier has another digression in the story of the hand tool only build. This small travel guitar is being built with (apart from a few slip ups) unpowered hand tools and from a single 4" x 4" mahogany fence post..
Ben loves upcycling and reusing unlikely materials and these new tuning keys are a great example of the art that can be made with a little ingenuity and a massive tool collection.
