Have some pictures. It'll be going to the tip fairly soon.
-
Add yourself and turn up
-
It's best if it's at least musically related if not specifically for bass.
-
That's the general idea. One object each would suffice.

The little MBB5 Announcement. Assuming enough interest and random tat to dispose of, there will be a raffle again.
-
The big MBB5 Announcement. Three of Basschat's most illustrious luthiers will be speaking at the MBB5 during the afternoon. Timings will be announced on the day. The topics are loosely going to be: Andyjr1515 - How to finish your bass and avoid gluing veneer to the dining table. Jabba_the_gut - How to make a bass out of anything, including recycled sawdust. Norris - Tools, and how to not to cut your fingers off.
-
Go on then... 1. Si600 - Nothing. You've already seen all my stuff and if the weather is nice I want to get the bike out 2. 3. 4. 5.
-
The room is booked until 1700. There is going to be an Announcement later regarding the bash. Also, feel free to bring part projects, as long as they're relevant. I'm happy to look at partly restored Group B rally cars but it doesn't really fit
-
It's yours sir. I'm near Daventry.
-
I got them in the hope they would provide weird stuff RPG plots, but in the event they're both fairly useless in that regard. They're both gone now.
-
Mostly reference books, but the first 5 Necroscope books are in there as well. Have them all or none, up to you Cricket books gone. Homebrew book gone. Brian Lumley gone.

A 1U re-purposed HP 252636-001 server PDU if you want it, IEC C13 inlet and four switched double IEC C14 outlets. I used it as the PDU in my flight case, but it's got so many outlets I wasn't ever going to use them and it's actually really heavy. Free to the good people of BC, postage is going to sting though just because of the weight. Sorry

One 3U short sleeve flight case from Flightcase Warehouse for sale. Yours for the princely sum of £40. Postage will be interesting, at least it should survive the Great British Postie. 19" wide, 300mm fore and aft. Doors front and rear with twisty locks rather than the over the top cabinet catches. Lots of stickers from a previous owner, I quite liked them so I left them on. Black hexaboard with aluminium trim. Rack strip to the front only. I will consider a straight swap for an equivalent depth 2U case, but I do want rails on both sides please

Gary Numan at the Roadmender last night. Very, very good.
-
Yep, Elliott Omnimill 00. I have yet to leave the chuck key in anything, but I saw it happen at college. Well, I say saw, but none of us actually saw anything, we just heard the bang as it ricocheted off the ceiling.

When I was young and foolish I tried to take far too much off a block of mild steel on the wrong side. The cutter disintegrated and the lump of mild was flung across the workshop. Dad was a mixture of relieved that no personal injury had happened, miffed at the loss of a cutter and mildly amused at the learning experience.

I suppose I'd better bump this as May is drawing nigh There could be a cake-off, but then Jo would only be allowed to bring one cake

Can you, and I have no idea if this is possible, carve the front and then use the router on that radius to ensure that you don't break through when you do the back carve? Or just cut all the way through and veneer it. Like a Yamaha SLG200 with a lid -
I do both on my P-Bass. 90 degree cable and through the strap. I broke the scratchplate on my first bass, a 90's P-Bass copy by using a straight jack and standing on the cable. I learnt very quickly from that one!

I have to say, and maybe this should be in the original post, that I can't guarantee cake. That's up to the attendees if they wish to supply any
