Has anybody here ever made their own guitar?

I just finished my first one last night...... but I forgot to get a picture, so I'll stick it up later!
One of the advantages of horses that people sometimes point out, is that they very seldom explode. Almost never, in my experience, apart from that unfortunate occurence in the hot summer a few years ago.

I made the body, the necks a Washburn, although I can't remember what type.

I started this project about a year ago, and for several months its just sat gathering dust!

A couple of hundred in total. It's been made over a period of time, so I can't remember exactly....

Probably around £300.
