Guitar builder here

[MapleHead]

Hi All
I've just joined and I am looking for some advice.
Firstly, my main interest outside of my boring IT job is guitar building. I have been working on my off time to come up with my own line of guitars for the last few years. I don't just make the wooden parts on my solid body electric guitars but I also make all the hardware as well, (minus the machine tuners, for now).
I have been working on nickel silver pickup covers for several weeks now. This is why I am here. I have pressed my first cover but it is not perfect. I hope to gain some knowledge from this site to help me resolve the imperfections.
Regards,
Jim
