I do solemnly swear it never will be. Neck blank and fretboard ordered now too but wasn't sure what the different truss rod lengths were for 440 or 460 for a 25 inch scale length

I never want to see it that tidy again!

It's 10x8 I think but there's a ton of junk piled up out of shot

Posted by: @ I'm talking nonsense.... my shed is even smaller at 6'x8' 😕

Posted by: @ Hi Gareth, Looks good. How big is your shed? I've got a wee 8'x10' shed which looks a bit tight stuffed with a lawnmower etc. Cheers, Russ 🙏🎸🙂🎶

I've been thinking about this for a few years and finally took the plunge, sought out and bought what thought I needed to get going and also cleaned a space in the shed. There's still a whole bunch of...

@darrenking 's suggestion would make a higher quality repair if done well but it is a bit harder to pull off - you could try this first - you might surprise yourself!

Another option is to bind the 'fretboard' - I would do what @tv101 suggests first (fill it) and keep binding in reserve if not happy with the outcome.

Hi James, You could always just glue a small piece of maple back into the hollow. If you get the shape right it should be pretty difficult to see once it's sanded. Admittedly, light coloured woods are...

@james-chacewatergmail-com-2 So could one use syooper glue and wotsit tape instead? I've gotten the impression that superglue and wotsit tape is frowned upon.

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...
