  • While camping outdoors last year, I thought of collecting beautiful leaves. and then I thought of "Why not make them into a guitar, no one has done that" so I gave it a try.

    Hello from North Carolina. That is one of the coolest things I have ever seen in my 64 years of being here, with 57 of those years being a guitar player! Now every time I walk outside and all I see is how many guitars I see laying on the ground under my feet as I walk around!! You did a fantastic job making that guitar like you did. I would have never in a million years thought of doing that. I have thought about getting a bunch of those wooden pallets that a lot of places will give them to you just to get rid of them, and most of them are made from oak too which is about as dense and hard as walnut. Maybe one day I'll build another guitar but this time I'll be on my own. May God bless you and your loved ones with a very happy, joyful, and safe new year!!

  • @RiemerWitteveen
    @RiemerWitteveen ปีที่แล้ว +11

    Nice video! I would've coated all the leaves in epoxy first, before stacking them. When cutting the shape of the body, you can see that there are voids in the laminate. Voids aren't beneficial for sustain, so should you do this again, that might be an idea. The leaves would also have more weight so stacking them is easier and faster and you could do everything in one go.

    • @nathanjasper512
      @nathanjasper512 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I think the way to do this and avoid... uh voids is to flatten them out just like he did and lay them out in a mold and pour like half an inch or less at a time. Just build it up in layers so the epoxy can sink into all the voids.

    Here's an idea. You do a guitar where the body is in 3 layers. The first layer is the lower third up to the bottom of the pickups and it is leaves, next, through the pickups and neck, you have some wild flowers, the layer from the top of the pickups to the upper horm, is blue epoxy. It will look like flowers growing in the ground, with sky above.
