They are, but at the same time, I'm a bit frustrated. It feels like I'm playing with my dad's tools, like I'm never going to actually accomplish what I'm trying to achieve. Like there is some magic ingredient that I'm missing somewhere. I think once I've got the box assembled, it will feel different. You know, when I'm holding an object that I made that actually looks like a guitar.
But yes. It was nice to get the sander put together and have some real work done on the piece I'm planning on using for this first guitar.
At some point, I'm going to have to turn my attention to dust collection, cause holy cow. That made more dust than truing up the drum did. My skin was coated with it. Good thing I had a dust mask. It also interferes with the sander doing it's job. Starts to accumulate on the surface of the wood and hinders the sander. You can hear the motor struggling to get through sometimes.
