My next job is to order some new cutters Hi TV, Hopefully you've got 6mm and/or 1/4" collet and 3.2mm (1/8") collets. I would suggest using the 6mm Wealden spirals for cut out and clearance operatio...

Yeah @boo The New York Doilies

@Mattbeels and @clinton Great, I ll stick with 10 to 12 then.Scarf Joint/No Scarf Joint I'll leave that decision until I m able to at least test this with some scrap wood and my miter saw.Either way, ...

@koendb I would say no matter which construction method that you choose, go with something around 10-12 degrees. I think those Gibson 15-17 degree headstocks look cool but they are just too much. For ...

My scarf joints are 12 degrees. I like it, for it makes bending strings a breeze.

Looking for advice on the headstock angle of my next project, which is a 1958 Flying V. I would say clone, but for the headstock angle, I am willing to compromise in favor of practicallity and strengt...

@tej Here is an example of how an oiled finish can darken mahogany. The first photo is before oiling in 2003 and the second one is from 2015 and shows no deterioration in the finish despite being kept...

@tej Oil finishes are hard wearing and easy to touch up if you need. Another advantage is they don’t chip or spread if you do get a knock. Just rub out the dent and apply more oil. I did an oil finish...

Looks like this is out of stock atm, but how about something like this ... With a red, or clear, finish over the top? Attachment : P1190492.JPG I used to use Andy's stuff on all of my builds, ...

@rocknroller912 Thats what I was presuming with the “dull” look, it’s hard to tell what anything will look like without testing. I think there was a finishing oil someone mentioned that was used but ...

@tej I think colour options while still seeing the grain will be very limited due to starting with a dark base of mahogany. Also depends what shade of brown your mahogany is. Brown isn’t a primary co...

What's not to like ... I do like a bit of Goldfrapp @tv101. I tried to see her a few years ago but missed out. Hopefully one day. 🎸🙂🎶🙏

What's not to like ... @tv101 What’s it called when you can’t answer a question? 😆

I not a big Eagles fan but I really enjoyed that energetic crowd. Especially the cutie hittin’ that roach in the beginning! 😆 Speaking of cuties, the Rev took it up a few notches!

What's not to like ... Interesting one @tv1 🤣

@russ they do look nice, this is the problem, I love the hand tools but am all to aware of the time I’d need to put in to perfect something I can do on the table saw in seconds. Time is something I do...

@tej. Oops. I forgot that Mark & Carol supply them in the shop. Get it from here. 👍🪚 🙏🎶🙂🎸

Hey @tej. Not sure but I think these guys supply Stewmac and other guitar making companies with their fret slot saws. 🎸🙂🎶🙏

That link doesn’t go to any particular product/tool. @boo circular saw Saw Mark using one in his one lesson

Seriously, unless you're going to be making a *lot* of fretboards, I'd say that this is the best option; Best? Simple to use and set-up, no need for jigs on your tablesaw, or for getting a load of...
