Brilliant @steveadams! You’re really doing it and the vids are stellar!

4 hands are better than 2!

Practice on scrap...

Hi Steve, you see that dust extraction port on your router? If you are lucky you might just find that a vacuum cleaner hose fits on that!😂😂😂

I was wondering where you'd gone!

Congrats Steve - that looks like a nice neat job.  The hardest job is always the one you fear most.  

 

 

So it's all easy from here on in ....

@steveadams

The templates hanging on the wall make it look like a real guitar makers workshop, if you didn’t do sound no one would know the difference.

Some people call me a tool, others are less complimentary. Tools being useful things.

That rosette's a good job well done @steveadams. I'll have to do it sometime, how many times did you practice it.

Hey @robin,

at least 4 times seriously...and then had to psyche mysef up..ha ha

@rocknroller912 It may look pro with the templates...but stil v amateur...I'll do a little show and tell video with the telecasters that I made using the templates..

@darrenking I was worried about the hoover twisting and then thought a third person could hold the hoover hose, but then I'd need a fourth person to trail the hoover...then a fifth to rotate the hoover power cable...and it was at that point I thought...sod it....ha ha

cheers all

Steve

@steveadams

The crew you’re describing to manage the dust extractor sounds like a BBC production team, and you didn’t even mention the Health & Safety experts.

cheers

@steveadams

Don’t forget the COSHH, Manual Handling and Power Tool Vibration Assessments (calculator for the last one is at www.hse.gov.uk).

ps don’t use a dust extractor, it will need a fire risk assessment.

@tv101

Yes risk assessments are very familiar territory for me. At work we had workshops with vehicle maintenance, wood machining/assembly and metal work/welding. I did all the risk and related assessments. We had to work to industry standards set by insurance inspectors which are very strict. It involved a lot of research into hazards and standards of PPE which change constantly. Learned a lot from the tradesmen.

Where is @steveadams, and part 7 of the show?

Abducted by aliens?

Busily posting part 12 in a parallel universe?

Down the pub?

 

 

 

(ok, that last one was just silly!)
