from disabled to Luthier and manufacturer.
Thank you for checking out my new Etsy Page. I am a 50-year-old in Idaho who was disabled in an auto accident in 1997. I have been paralyzed for 27 years and in that time i chose to not let it stop me from being successful in life. I was a personal apprentice to John Bolin for 4 years leaning the art of Luthiery from a man many would call the best in the business. since that time i have custom built hundreds of guitars for many great players around the nation. I also spent the last 5 years learning the arts of 3d printing and CnC machine work.
over the years I have designed and built several tools for lutherie, many parts and personalized upgrades for guitars as well as printing parts for collectors and restorers of vintage toys. Mostly focused on the 1980's line of GI Joe and the new classified line. I have developed a relationship with one of the designers of the new classified line and have purchased the rights to sell 3d prints of his designs. I will be listing more of these as well as the tools and guitar parts on my page as I move forward with this business so please check back often to see what cool things are brewing here in the design shop. don't forget to show some love and favorite the page to help me get more exposure through the algorithm.
Have a great day!
