@boo Thanks for sharing the video it’s brilliant. It’s on another level to what was thinking and I can imagine it would cost a lot to make.

@robin Top prize would be to reach the Carol Cam

Nice video there @russ! 😉😉 Err, the song wasn’t bad either... 😆

That was a good energetic start to my aural day @Russ.

This is My Favourite Song For This Moment...... 🎸🙂🎶🙏

Is a guitar making video game a possibility I can just it see now, a long haired guy disappearing in a cloud of sanding dust while an unseen female voice tells him put his mask on 🙂

@cheesewhisk Is a guitar making video game a possibility. Virtual reality might help us to get all the mistakes out of the way.

I hate to say "stewm*c", but they have nut seating files. I bought one way back when (when £1=$2). Attachment : image.png Use that carefully and the bottom of the nut slot should be flat, and ...

@keondb If you need to make a curved slot try making a curved scraper to match a curved bottom nut then scrape it front to back.

@keondb Ok I think I picked you up wrong. Do you check the nut to see if it’s flat, a lot of new ones are not. I use a thin chisel as a scraper to get the slot flat and check for rocking with a small ...

Looks like it’s going to be an LP summer

@tv101 Thanks for that advice Tony. It's given me my Mojo back. I'm very much a visual learner. I'm sure when I get started it will all be a bit clearer and as you say when I draw it all out on paper ...

but I worry that I won't be able to do this when it comes to building a different design of guitar because I won't have direct instructions to follow @Russ ... worry ye not. Quite seriously, before m...

Hi Mark, I've been working through your online courses which are very easy to follow. When I eventually come to build the Bandsman I feel that I will be able to do it following your instructions and c...

That looks like a pretty impressive save @eddie6string - and a nice piece of veneer too. 👍 I've got a Safe-T-Planer too, but I've never really got the hang of using it, so it's sat (still in...
