Check out the restoration of the antique d'Orso guitar you saw in the video:

exactly what i was looking for! cheers
Just built mine today, thank you.
very nicely done Susan they turned out awesome.
Love it! Can't wait to see what you are going to do with hardwoods :-)
G,Day Susan ,love the video i will have a go at making one , looking forward to your next video ..
just what I was looking for.
Thanks darlin'
thank you Susan. osb use what you got and it looks okay to me most importantly it does the job
Awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Handy little tip, when next putting screws in put a little bit of soap or washing up liquid on the thread and your screws will go in so much easier.
Nice simple project Susie! I think simple projects like this are more likely to attract people who are otherwise not very much into making things because only few tools and experience are required.
It would probably be an idea to seal the surface first before applying paint, especially when using MDF. I usually use old-fashioned primer sealer consisting of a strongly diluted clear nitrocellulose varnish. Furthermore you could also line the edges with a felt stripe; I guess there are less chances that it would mess up the paint of a guitar.
OSB get's a very cool design to it when, sanded smooth.
Automotive vaccum line works good too...for protection against the wood finish on guitars.Rubber vaccum line.
Very nice and simple stand! Felt on the bottom edge would be a good, simple option to protect wood floors.
+Scott Reeves good point. Thanks
Hi Susan, new subscriber here well kind of I subed a few days ago when I cam across your guitar restoration, yeah I binged watched all of those vids lol I have to say that guitar came out really very nice i injoyed watching you transform that into a playable nice looking parlor guitar, this is a nice little idea cheap and fast guitar stand ☺thanks for the video.
+matt Hajas Well done on the binge watch. I'm impressed :-)
Nice video and project. You did a great job showing what went into the design and how the shape leads to the overall utility. Also, nothing wrong with OSB, particularly when used in the orientation you used it. Plenty strong for the purpose, and if you like the look, all the better.
I will echo Tom Ahoks's comment, in that I've had mixed results with those foam strips, depending on the surface. I cannot always predict, but some finishes will stick to it, and others not at all. I'd keep an eye on it to make sure it's compatible with your lovely guitar's finish.
+Barry's Workshop if I can find felt draft excluder on a roll it might be better. I'm a former windsurf racer so I guess I'm drawn to neoprene :-)
I think you should be on Blue peter nice job Susie x
most consider OSB as trash wood good only for junk packaging not for any kind of serious wood working project. my thought is use what you have access to .
C O I Kent no offense, just OSB is very low grade for most projects, I would like to see the container house you mentioned, it sounds awesome.
suomi mainittu! torilla tavataan! Finland mentioned, let's go to marketplace!
That's great, Suzie. Do a wall hanger when you get time! I don't want to buy any more Hercules hangers!
+JDODify I do have a mad idea for a wall hanger but it will take some months of planning and design :-)
Mad idea? Cool - I'm now expecting some sort of grinning gargoyle head that holds your guitar in its mouth.
no offense intended but ,most people I know put OSB and MDF in the lowest category, myself included. but still a good project and nice idea.
manomano style
id love to hear your ideas on a stand, that holds 4-5 guitars, both acustic and electric, i'm working on plans for it atm, but im getting nowhere good.
+Kenn Jørgensen that sounds like a rack to me. Do you need the fronts of the guitars visible?
i find the racks you can buy, to be kinda... boring. and since you were now on the subject of stands, I wondered how you would have done it?! I live in a small flat, so I'm going for storage over display. All my "pretty" ones are on wallhangers. ;)
+Kenn Jørgensen I suppose if I suggested 2 parallel thick 1" dowels covered in pipe insulation at the bottom and a plywood 'comb' that the necks slot in sideways at the top, that might be boring. You could spray it purple or cover it in glitter :-)
glitter it is!!!

Are you sure the finish on guitars can stand the touch of black foam. Nitro cellulose is known to be notoriously sensitive, at least.
+Tom Ahoks I think it's rubber - it seems the same sort of thing you find on the clips of guitar tuners so I'm not concerned
FYI, In the instructions of the Snark clip tuners it says not to leave them on for extended periods of time as they may damage the finish. One melted the lacquer on a headstock of a guitar I built. Certain rubbers react with certain finishes. Looking forward to the next video!
+benfordguitars Really? Wow, thanks for that. You'd think they'd adjust there choice of materials to make them suitable for, well, you know, guitars! :-)
MDF is classed as the new asbestos in america so stick with ply
