As promised - this is how we make our Guitar Maker's Knife - AKA: Skew Knife, Skew Chisel and 'Violin Maker's Knife' but we try not to talk about that...as usual the delightful Carol will be on hand to take your Q's and heckle me from off camera.

Measure twice, cut once...

Yup, watching that, I thought “easy”!

 

As long as you’ve got the bench grinder

And the bevelling jig

And a blowtorch

And a creme brulee-er

And a large can of oil

And the tennis racket handle heat shrink

And fingers made of asbestos

And all the protective equipment (for wearing when Carol’s watching)

 

 

Or maybe it’s easier to buy one that’s been made by someone who knows what they’re doing!

I’ll make my guitars, but I’m not going to make the tools to make the guitars.
