I loathe newly purchased towels, they always feel like they don't dry well for a while. I typically wash/swap every 4 or so days. We also "strip" our towells with a deep clean like every couple months.

I'm a big fan. Great hardware and super fast support. Krikizz's work getting the 64 running for the analogue 3d was very fast and very well communicated.
Yeah, mine were super picky about which worked and which didn't. Not sure why, they were all formatted properly. Just following up on my previous post.
Yeah, this stuff is basically undigestable except by specific enzymes or processes. In general, you can pretty much just count on it getting smaller and smaller and more bio-reactive and more prevalent in smaller and smaller life/environmental systems unless it's chemically destroyed/remediation or filtered and removed from the environment.
That's cool as hell, if I didn't already have the base gba version I would jump on it.
Just dude's living in the moment.
Imma throw hands, respect my gnomies.
It doesn't sound like you want to be talked into it.
Working with the epoxy is messy and they can be hazardous but the finishing work is the really nasty part. Doing any grinding or sanding on composites is MISERABLE. The powder created gets everywhere, is itchy, and will give you cancer if you breathe it.
Are you planning an electric or acoustic?
Integrated neck, bolt on, or set neck? Wooden or carbon fiber? What fretboard material?
Have you built a guitar before?
Have you worked with epoxy/composites?
Solvent does not remove rust.
You degrease the part, then manually remove the rust, then clean with the solvent just before welding. Acetone or alcohol are better cleaners for weld prep than brake cleaner. These solvents are volatile enough that most of the time, the part is dry and not-flammable by the time you get your gear on and are ready to weld.
The really damaging thing here is not the fire but if you use chlorinated brake cleaner when welding it created concentrated chlorine gas and will kill you.
Welding produces a ton of nasty fumes and you should ALWAYS be wearing a welding rated respirator and using a fume extractor when welding, especially with flux core, galvanized, or stainless unless you want extra nasty cancer.


Treat yourself to some good drivers from Vessel and you are living the high life. Or don't and strip every screw you look at on old Japanese motorcycles.
