My conribution to the new category
This category is a welcome addition! I attach a photo of my work-in-progress, altough not much progress, lately. Changer and many parts from an MSA, acquired from Johnie King. Cross shafts and mounting bearings of my own design. End plates and pedal bar are polished C-channel aluminum extrusions. Maple cabinet is "finished" in drum wrap, ordered custom from Walopus. It's going to be an S-12 with 4 x 4, although I haven't settled on the copedant yet.

having had a formal mechanical education, I still find wood-working the most satisfying form of creativity, because it's a nice material to work with and the beauty and art it can bring to the project. Sure, mechanics, well done, can have their beauty of their own too.
Beautiful guitar!... J-D.
