Guitar.

She has 2,400 popsicle sticks and she sounds and plays better than I could possibly hope for however my playing is debatable. I have been working on this one over two months. 12 Coats of poly, 6 coats Meguiars rubbing compound, 6 coats Meguiars Swirl Remover, 6 coats Fender Guitar polish. After hours of blood sweat and tears and a ton of elbow grease hand polishing I am thrilled with the results. For the most part she was pretty easy to build, just glue time was very time consuming...

    • Thank you Klomp. I have built several parts guitars and only two popsicle stick guitars and as of right now I have 17. This newest popsicle stick guitar is by far the best sounding and playing guitar I own. I love it.

    • I'm retired so I would go crazy if I just sat around in my chair all day long and wasted life away. I am in my shop from sun up to sun down but I love every second of it...

  • Awesome job.  I can't even imagine the glue time.  This is amazing.

    • Thank you Rob. It definitely is a long drawn out process because there is so many sets I have to glue up.

  • I have been scrolling through projects for the last couple of days. All of your guitars are amazingly beautiful!
    And every time I eat a popsicle, I will think about your guitars!

    • I really appreciate that, thank you for the kind words. I have one I am building right now that is going to take a month or two but with any luck it will be my best one. I will definitely post it when its finished.
