If you think that is scary then you won't be able to handle the one I am planning to build...

Is there any reason I couldn't get some pine, poplar or oak from Home Depot and turn it into a lap steel?
I mean, like, in terms of construction. I wouldn't expect it to be high-quality toanwood or whatever.

I saw some pine stair tread that looked good and felt dry...

The body on mine is a piece of pine from a old book shelf.. also weren't 40's fenders pine? or was that just tele prototype thing? Hell I've seen skateboards turned into lapsteels.
