This is a quick peek into the process of making my Oakcaster #11 – a kind of prototype holly & oak concoction. It’s a catalogue of ‘slips and fixes’ this guitar but despite that, I’m liking it more and more the longer it takes. It’s going to be a keeper so I don’t mind the fixes. One you can see was where the template slipped while routing the neck pocket (with a new more powerful 1/2″ router) – leaving me needing to rout and fill an oversized slot and cut it again.

In addition you can see that the edge joins aren’t great (I struggled to accurately cut the reciprocal curves – and failed) but they were good enough to slam together and use anyway. I like the overall effect even if the execution isn’t perfect this time around.

The headstock was lacquered with Min Wax rubbing lacquer, done indoors in the comfort – and in controlled conditions. It worked out a lot better than previous tests with this finish so I’m encouraged to use it again in the same way.

I’m waiting for a black wrap-around bridge to arrive and I’ll then get on and finish this guitar and get playing

The pickups are currently a new Iron Gear ‘Steamhammer’ in the bridge and a Marlin twin rail (vintage 1980s pickup) in the neck – mainly for looks. I’ve no idea yet what that combination will work like!

Depending on which model Silverado you have, the holes needed to install a set of tow hooks might already be drilled. If they are, then installation is very simple and requires only a socket or wrench set at most. The process may also require removing the air dam or bumper, or even cutting holes in the bumper to install.

This moderately difficult job takes one to two hours and costs from $15 to $500 dollars depending on which tow hooks you purchase. A professional may charge anywhere from $100 to $1,000 dollars.

This job requires a socket or wrench set, Loctite, and tow hooks. Optional materials include a marker or paint stick, rotary tool or saw, and a drill.

Step One – Determine if modifications are needed

Depending on what sort of tow hooks you choose, the factory openings on the bumper may be sufficient.

Measure the area and determine if any cutting or trimming is necessary to make the hooks fit. If necessary, mark the area to cut and trim it.

Step Two – Install the tow hooks

Slide the tow hooks into place and line them up with the bolt holes on the frame.

If you don’t have factory bolt holes, you will need to mark this area and drill them. In some cases, the bolt holes may not be big enough and must be drilled out to fit.

Once completed, squeeze a line of red Loctite onto the bolts and install them. Install the chain hold down bracket onto the bolts, followed by the washers and nuts.
Tighten according to the torque specs in the manual that comes with your tow hook.
