Do you have something you want to buy in the up coming Swap Meet? Let our sellers know by posting it here.

On Monday when the event begins I will move this thread to the Swap Meet discussion but for now we can keep it here so everyone can participate.

Hey Mark... any chance you will part with any of the LS in your stash?      How about you Hank?

Trying to accumulate some of the necessities for guitar building -

1) a 15 ft. radiused dish
2) a 25 ft. radiused dish
3) an inexpensive (get started) bending iron
4) Chisels, Small plane, scrapers and sharpening stuff for those blades

In particular, the radius dishes and bending iron would be great.

Thanks.

I think that I would like to find a good back and side set(s?), tops, and generally some good tools to start up on my first.

Maybe even some power tools too. I've been looking for a good bandsaw for a while now.

One more thing. I'm looking for a headplate out of swamp ash. I need it for my current build and haven't found it anywhere. I'd prefer not to mill it myself either.

WOOD! You know, fine rosewoods, ebony fingerboards etc, the same old same old.

Oh, a set of curly (not "waterfall", just an undulating curl) bubinga sides would be nice...

Well, I'd quite like to buy about, ooh, 20 years of accumulated lutherie expereience.

A generous bowlful of expensive mistakes made by someone else.

Oh, and Hesh's cleaning lady.

Oh, wait? You mean things I'm actually likely to find?

Well in that case, I've got my eyes peeled for an old bending iron, or even a preprepared pipe which I can attach a wallpaper stripp- err I mean blowtorch to.

Some practice sides, or in fact any kind of reasonable wood offcuts for the purposes of practicing various techniques hands-on.

Would love to see one of those japanese-style block planes (no, probably not the correct words, but I'll know them if I see them)

Umm, well beyond that I suppose rubber rope would be useful to save me having to traipse all over the place to find it.
