I was doing a last little bit of adjusting and preparing, whilst I was finger tightening a clamp, I heard this great big cracking sound, a sound that I knew immediately was wood - cracking, and bad.
I swore, closed my eyes and turned my back on the guitar.
When I looked back again - the relief was huge. The waste clamp had snapped. The piece of pine that I used to make it had a knot running through it and this is where the clamp eventually let go. No damage done, just a few years off my life.
Time taken : 1 hour
Tools used : glue, clamps, scrap pine (new waste clamp) pencil, ruler
AU$'s spent : Nil
