RE: Looking For Tip On Consistent Fretboard Radius

Here is another tip. Making radius sanding blocks. If you ever happen to know a drummer that will let you borrow his 12 inch tom drum, great! Disassemble the skins and double side some tape on it, pla...

I resign myself to more detailed sanding then! Think of it more as you've given yourself an opportunity to enhance your skill set 😉 😆

RE: Looking For Tip On Consistent Fretboard Radius

RE: Looking For Tip On Consistent Fretboard Radius

Take measurements regularly (eg. with a vernier caliper) at the 4 corners and at the 12th fret left and right and keep checking if the board is flat with a straight edge. Takes time, but you should be...

RE: Looking For Tip On Consistent Fretboard Radius

I’d suggest: Having the fretboard/neck as the fixed object, and moving the sanding block. Easier to keep stable and straight. Getting a longer radius sanding block. Using something as a visual guide ...

RE: Looking For Tip On Consistent Fretboard Radius
