I normally have a sacrificial piece of wood underneath the one I’m cutting/routing. Good tip @boo It would probably be easier (and more fun!) to just make a new template then dicking around with Bondo imo but hey, sometimes you… Read more»

Uh-mazing job on those EVH covers!
Personally I prefer open face pickups but this is such a great idea that I’m absolutely going to fookin’ steal it 🤪

I’d offer to help you with that @boo – but the shortbread and beer is poisonous (gluten) and I never managed to develop a taste for whisky, despite numerous distillery tours in years gone by … @tv101 Wow! What do… Read more»

The good thing is that the routing template I made was from 18mm MDF and I used a master, clear Perspex template to make it from. That’s one of the many rule #1s @boo! Just don’t let the router slip… Read more»

Thank boo, it’s a bit like opening a lucky bag when you cut the angle on the headstock, sometimes you’re lucky.
