Is there a recipe for the mix or is it just pure witchcraft? I prefer to think of it as wizardry rather than witchcraft 😆 You'll need ... one dollop of wood glue and a large pinch or two of s...

Some fine maple sawdust and glue, mixed together into a smooth paste Christy TV! That sawdust and glue trick on your hole (Fnarr Fnarr) is invisible! Is there a recipe for the mix or is it just pure ...

@james-chacewatergmail-com-2 I'll keep you posted with the next cock up I thought that I was king of the router cock ups. Have a look at my "First Practice Bulid" post, you'll find all my learning o...

I've shared (some of) mine in various posts on here Some of the bigger learning opportunities; Here's the one where I routed the bridge pickup cavity where the bridge posts should have gone ... .....

I'll keep you posted with the next cock up That's only fair - I've shared (some of) mine in various posts on here - I seem to manage to create a "learning opportunity" every time I try to build somet...

Oh yeah.... when you said 'roundover' my mind automatically jumped to roundover bit. It's not radiused yet, so perhaps it won't notice so much once finished and fitted..... I'll keep you posted with t...

I wouldn’t use a router for the round over - I’d just use some sandpaper. But, looking at your neck ... is the fretboard radiused yet? It looks quite flat. If not yet radiused, do that first as it m...

Cheers TV... so I fix my dodgy routing with some more, er..... routing? What could possibly go wrong? 🤣

What I’d do .... A bit of round over on the top edge of the fretboard. That’ll blend the nick into the top of the fretboard, and won’t be noticeable. Some fine maple sawdust and glue, mixed togethe...

...........and this happened Attachment : 20201115_133039.jpg This project is doomed. Although this part of the neck will sit in the neck pocket ,as it's a one piece neck there'll be a nick ou...

@clinton Thanks! I've always wanted a simple guitar, with a single P90... I think this is it!

@tv101It is... I call it "therapy"... I also realized I could have much better tools (i.e. the rasp that Mark uses in his videos... ), that would make my task easier and quicker...

@jaxty Looking good! Love the LP jr.

and am carving the neck... One of the most satisfying stages of a guitar build 😀

Well, got my fretboard cut to shape, and glued on overnight last night. I have now radiused it and am carving the neck...progress!!

@robin I am somewhat lucky that I have a local source (within 50km) that has body blanks, neck blanks and fingerboard blanks available. I will eventually get back to purchasing pre-made, however, as ...

@jaxty I just needed to be able to do this myself I like to do things for myself too and I've really enjoyed make jigs and tools. But for fretboards, I don't have any suitable wood to make blanks f...

@robin Thanks! Feels like good progress! I have a radius sanding block that I will use. Most certainly, a pre-slotted board would have saved me some time and a lot of effort! I just needed to be ...

Hi Jaxty, you're doing well there. I used a Bailyley pre slotted and radiused fretboard for mr first build, and iv'e got another one for my next build. What do you use to radius your fretboards?

I'm new to the site, but have a couple of builds on the go... have made several mistakes on the way, on previous builds, and these ones, but have been able to recover. Building necks are the bane of m...
