Re: Advice on first mandolin building kit/tutorial
Here's my Stew Mac MLO (mandolin-like object ) that I built. I'm glad I had the opportunity to build one. Too bad they're no longer available. For a first timer, I did fairly well. The rookie mistakes didn't really affect playability. It sounds decent enough. I'm no expert woodworker, but it turned out OK. If you don't mind buying a lot of tools you probably won't use again, it's worth it for the experience.
