here’s a photo for you to try making. I can make a jig for that!!!

@markbailey I can only echo what other people here have said, I truly hope life take a turn for the better for your family soon. As for the forums, people here have helped me no end while you’ve had m...

@rocknroller912 oddly I did something very similar but just rolled some sandpaper into a cone, it all worked out well, and the bridge is in the right place. Now it’s just the pick guard that needs rep...

@boo I’m pleased you have done a review on Aquacoat. I feel confident about using it now that I have a professional opinion. Good grain filler is worth any price in my opinion when you think of the am...

Great to see this old thread @boo, errr Master!

I know a lot of American guitar builders use this as a top coat and finish for their instruments, and for a long time we haven't been able to get it in the UK, well thats all changed. For any of you t...

@tej Drilling out existing holes to make them fit a commercially available dowel can be very tricky as the point of of the drill is starting in fresh air, which means it will wander and give you an ov...

@tv101 I thought there was some skullduggery going on with the hero points, now you’ve let the cat out of the bag. I wasn’t going to mention jazz banjo again but @darrenking already did it so here’s a...

To quote the Beatles, yeah, yeah, yeah! Me thinks Boo doth protest too much! And thus Boo clocks up more points commenting on his own post about Boo clocking up lots of points. How does he do it ?

I still love this Aquacoat I've just been watching through Mark's Acoustic Build and saw how easy it is to use the Aquacoat. Great stuff. 🎶🙏🙂🎸

That seems like a clever solution @darrenking!

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...
