MEET ME AT THE ALLEY BEHIND THE STOP 'N' GO WITH A BAG...

Post by letsgocoyote »

... of used tongue depressors and a stray cat. i have an idea...

So... I am trying to brainstorm what might be a good material to use for pickup bobbins (as I want to start winding pickups in the near future) and while regular pickup bobbins aren't expesnive or anything, im sure theres something out there thats recyclable.


so im thinking... tongue depressors. but isn't that sick? i mean, personally im not afraid of a used tongue depressor, but its probably illegal to acquire used tonque depressors hahahaha.


so anyone got any bright ideas!?

I'd think that unused tongue depressors wouldn't be that expensive - they probably sell 'em in bulk at any medical supply store. It's not like you'd be trying to buy Vicodin or something...
