12 String Electric Strings

How to build a 12-string electric guitar?
I've never built a guitar before, but I really want to try it (he had woodworking experience before, so I do not think it would be a problem). What was meant to do was find the plans for the chain of 6 and only modify to be a 12-string. Is this a good or bad idea? Can someone let me know the basic steps that I know where to start? Well, that was less than helpful ... no real answer?
Elderly has tons of books on guitar building, that would be a good place to start. There are a lot of places that sell parts, such as stewmac.com, lmii.com and http://www.warmoth.com/. You will need to slot the saddle and nut 12 times instead of 6 and will require further width both on the fingerboard too.

How To Build Electric Fence
How to build electric fence requires the use of and electric fencer to generate and send electric shock down the line. It is sometimes the only resort to teach a bad fence crawling animal to respect a fence.
The main thing to remember is the wire must not have a path to ground. If the wire does connect to the ground the electricity will then enter the ground and not continue down the line.
Most of the time it is only necessary to have one “hot” wire on a fence animals will learn very quickly and avoid the fence.
How to build electric fence is basic, you start by choosing the right post; wood posts can be used but are harder to keep the wire insulated. You can buy special posts that you can push in with your foot that have an insulated ring that the wire in held in.
Once the posts placed, simply string out the wire and attach to the posts. Use a wire tightener at the end to keep tension on the line. Drive a ground rod beside your electric fencer, one wire from the fencer goes to the ground rod and the other goes to the wire on the fence.
Most fencers allow you to either plug 110 current(regular household plug-in) or have 12volt attachment. If you are in reach of electricity run a cord to plug in the fencer. If you are not near power you can use a 12 volt car battery and use solar power or other means to recharge the battery.
Electric fencing is economical and fast to build, by this you should know how to build electric fence.
