I’D HOPED to get out for a paddle after my morning Zoom session with a guitar student. No such luck – the calm day predicted has unsurprisingly ended up windy and the loch is a bit on the choppy side. Ah well.
Instead, I do a little more work on the audiopoint info board. The engraving is OK, but I’d prefer it to be higher contrast. I think I’m gonna have to try and inlay the lettering with mica powder. I seal up a test engrave with shellac and order some clear-drying wood glue to mix with the mica powder. We’ll try it out when the glue arrives tomorrow and see if it’s likely to work.
There’s some prep to do for a guitar student coming later today and a courier drops off some raw brass I need for a special job.
Next, I get some video clips ready to spin into this evening’s Wildcats’ livestream on Facebook then get to play guitar for a wee while before my guitar student and her mum rock up.
I have time for a quick wander through the woods before the 8pm livestream, All goes to plan and I’m back in the house by 9pm.
