Black Rat Snake


 

Kinda think this guy had a mocking bird for lunch today..maybe..as there were about 3 other mocking birds out on the ground with him, squalking.  He had crossed from the woods to the trees by the pond for lunch, then was headed back to woods while I was walking the dog.  Quickly went back to house, grabbed the snake tongs and rode bike back...to help him cross the road safe....But by then he was already across the road and crawling into the woods, his belly full.  In the woods thrushes and mocking birds chipped at him..

Partscaster Telecaster Build in Progress


 This is how she looks thus far.  Knot-free North Carolina white pine neck (Rosser Guitars), sanded, primed, painted (surf green), clear coated, sanded multiple times(up to 2500 grit), Fender neck plate bolted Fender neck to body, Fender tuners...thats it so far.  Some of the body paint looks distressed, its just first time mistakes; left them as is, and it gives it a bit of road-worn look.  Look for a Mr. Vague YouTube video in the near future on the complete construction.
