RE: BYOEG Online Bandsman 2

I’m also intrigued @boo. I know that you’re ditching your original plan (if that’s what you could call it 😂) and you can’t do what @tv101 did as you’re not using a pickguard... Could it be wha...

It's not my usual behaviour, but I'd have to agree with @mattbeels just this once. @tv101 Thanks buddy! ✊

RE: Not only do I suck at routing, I suck at gluing too.

I feel slightly cheated if I have fewer than 24 frets, 21 frets on a modern guitar should be a hanging offence in my opinion. I agree with you @jonhodgson, well except for that part about the hanging...

RE: When the truss rod went in deeper than you remembered ...

I was bored so I decided to give @Tej's suggestion a try. It took well over an hour and the fretboard will need a little more glue & dust in places but I've ended up with a usable fretboard (altho...

RE: Not only do I suck at routing, I suck at gluing too.

Judging from your photos @cheesewhisk it doesn’t look like squeeze out for days. But It does sound like you figured the problem out by missing the nail hole... sorry about that. How about a close up p...

RE: Not only do I suck at routing, I suck at gluing too.

Can't add much to what the guys above said re glue amount and clamping pressure but what works for me is leaving the fretboard slightly oversize when gluing (with centre lines on neck and board as a r...

RE: Not only do I suck at routing, I suck at gluing too.

In all honesty I think the amount of glue was fine and the clamping pressure was firm but not wood crushing @mattbeels, I don't know maybe you can tell from the squeeze out on that photo. I genuinely ...

RE: Not only do I suck at routing, I suck at gluing too.

I don't think I found the nail hole on the 10th fret when I lowered the fretboard onto the neck. I think you've hit the nail on the head there @cheesewhisk, if the pins are located then it just can't...

RE: Not only do I suck at routing, I suck at gluing too.

Interesting using the nails to pin it, the technique I've seen is to drill a hole through the fret slot (I can't remember the size) and use a toothpick (with the end broken off, so it's basically a li...

RE: PART 6 - THROUGH THE ROUND WINDOW

@steveadams The crew you’re describing to manage the dust extractor sounds like a BBC production team, and you didn’t even mention the Health & Safety experts.
