I think Boo has managed another 9k rep points in the last month @darrenking - you do realise that @Boo hacked the system a while back? His points get auto-doubled. So, if it shows 10k, he's really ...

Apologies for any inconvenience Don't even dare to think about apologising to us. I don't want to speak for everyone, but I'm willing to bet that most -all- of us are just sorry that we can't do an...

We have been rumbling along doing guitar stuff so no problem. Hope you mum is comfortable and well looked after. Look after yourself Mark!

ooo nice @darrenking

Ok, I have been mulling over this ‘travel stop’ thing on the flattening jig and have been drawing little adjustable plywood stops with slots and screws and threaded inserts and so on. The problem is t...

Apologies for any inconvenience Hi Mark, There has been no inconvenience and certainly absolutely no need for you to apologise. I am more than sure that everyone on your forums fully understands that...

@boo Looking good

Kits are often useful for the learning opportunities that they bring! You'd think, given that they all just come off a machine out there in Chinaland, that someone could set the machine up properly be...

@tv101 thanks for the advice. Annoyingly none of the existing holes are reusable, they’re small too and I don’t have any small dowel. Pretty sure if I try to turn something that thin it’d just snap to...

Hello there @markbailey, how are you? I hope all is well on your end!

I’m gonna need more MDF! Yup @tej. Just like tools, we always need more!

I’m a bit worried about copy routing the pointy bits, any advice on avoiding tear out on those areas. You can 'Back Route' the corners to prevent break out: Route as normal until you are close to the...

Or are you saying I should now promote the template to MASTER and make a new template? Probably I guess but will I make that many more this shape? Not sure, I want to go for an MX250 style or even a s...

Cheers @mattbeels yeah so for the master I used straight edges and cut close to the lines with the bandsaw then sanded the curves. Then I used that to make a copy but used a straight edge instead of t...

I used a complete straight edge to copy route all the actual straight edges onto the template. Well done @cheesewhisk, as long as you got there in the end. Did you then make a backup, is that what’s ...

@tej like Mat says and Mark suggests, make a master then a copy from that so if and when you hack into it you have a backup master. @mattbeels you know me and my bandsaw / router skills, it's a 'kind...

Thanks @markbailey I should have a decent amount to test on once I cut out the body. I hope you are well, we're all thinking about you.

@markbailey. Good to see you back on the forum Mark. Hope all is well with you. 🎸🙂🎶🙏

@markbailey. That is such sad news Mark. I do hope that your mum is comfortable and getting the best of care. We're continuing to hold you in our thoughts. Take care, 🙏🎶🙂...

Hi Mark, I hope your mum fully recovers fast and completely. No apologies needed at all, you make sure you take care of your family but also for yourself!
