This is a WordPress Dashboard Widget I wrote. I figured it might make an interesting page, so I made it do double duty.

I like to experiment with materials, designs, and techniques outside of conventional luthiery to build low-cost, high-quality, fully-functional, and attractive electric guitars and basses. What I am not interested in is doing the same old thing the same old way it has been done for decades.

Batteries

I only use clip-less battery boxes for two reasons. First, those 9-volt battery clips may be tolerable for a smoke detector, but if you plan to use it a lot, it is a pain in the ass, and then it breaks. And second, 9-volt batteries ( all batteries, really, but especially 9-volts ) are guaranteed to leak, and should never be left inside a device unless absolutely necessary. I only put a battery in a guitar ( or anything else ) when I want to use it, and then take it out afterward and keep it in a little dish. That's much easier if it just slips in and out and you don't have to mess with one of those stupid clips. And if when it leaks, I just throw it away and wash out the dish.
