Home Depot

Home Depot was founded in 1978 by Arthur Blank and Bernie Marcus. They, along with Ken Langone and Pat Farrah, wanted to offer a one-stop shop for people who are do-it-yourself types. In 1979, Home Depot opened its first two retail stores, 60,000 square feet each, in Atlanta, Georgia. Since then, Home Depot's growth has continued at a rapid pace.

As of 2008, Home Depot has approximately 2,000 stores, averaging over 100,000 square feet in size, and can be found in the United States, Canada, Mexico, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, and Guam.

Home Depot is currently headquartered in Vinings, Georgia.

• Skunk Stripe Shaping

  
  Telecaster Guitar Forum — Authority: 176
  I just mount it vertically in a vice and with a strip of sandpaper I sand it by by pulling the paper back and forth holding it close to the wood. Same motion as shoe shining. You can change the roundness by changing the distance between your hands. Wide for flatter curve and narrow gets you a sharper curve.

  Your paint work looks great. Excellent save on the router bite. You made a great looking axe. Then you put those pieces of mesquite on there. Those are a deal killer for me. Chrome and that junior pickguard Ian recommended will bring you home.

• Recessed straplocks?

  
  Telecaster Guitar Forum — Authority: 176
  Those are the old style Dunlop ones, right? Id imagine if you use a properly sized and sharpened drill bit with the area to be drilled taped over with painters/masking tape, it would go alright. Just go slow.

• Assembly question...

  
  Telecaster Guitar Forum — Authority: 176
  Ok, dang, I was hoping I wouldnt have to mess with shims and stuff, but its not too hard. The main thing is that taking the neck off kills the strings tone when they get re-put back on.
