How I did repair and restyle a broken second hand bass guitar as an artisan jeweler.

Part 7

I put a vintage polish on the 925 silver, took two component adhesive to keep the cover in place and fastened the jack.
Now the bass is back from the dead and ready to rock! 🎸

Wait…. should I really leave the original shiny white pickguard like this?

Last things to be done. Blackening the 925 silver in a stinky sulfur bath 😷😂 = more contrast with the 585 gold. Lay the cables in neatly, repairing a broken spot with black resin.

Part 5

I put a hammering pattern on the lower layer and soldered both 925 silver pieces together. Checked if it was still fitting with the jack socket. Finished with soldering four solid 585 / 14k golden stars on top.

Hoy ha sido mi primerita incursión en la creación de velas (de cera de soja + aceite esencial de flor de cerezo).
Otro paso más en "mi era"...

Si te molan, probablemente las empiece a vender de aquí a unas semanas...

Fotografía a 4 velas. La mayor de ellas está dentro de un recipiente de cristal, con un palo con un agujero en la mecha porque se está  endurenciendo. Las tres restantes están contenidas en recipientes hechos en pasta de modelar, pintados a mano y con resina cristal. Dos de ellos tienen un granulado con café y otro está pintado con flores azules y un borde del mismo color. Todas las velas tienen en su superficie pétalos de rosas, jazmines y malvas.

Quickie personal hat project. Made it, using a Brother SE1900 sewing & embroidery machine. The hardest part was pinning the hat firmly. The actual embroidery itself was fast since it was done by a machine.

So, she's finished!

My original plan was to do her as a Japanese figure, but changed my plan into a redhead when I decided to do the octopus as a Pacific Giant Octopus, as the colours would match well.
