@rocknroller912 Thanks. Set up week next week so strings on then. Fingers crossed

@powerful Very tidy build. It’s scary getting strings on for the first time.

Nice work @powerful ! That looks really good

Posted by: @rocknroller912 It looks like you have a good grain match also. So placing the new dot ? Yes, I used the off-cut from the sides of that fretboard, so the grain matched. + I used the piece...

Sorry to all - I had a last minute unexpected obstacle to my participation, so couldn't make it. Well done @rocknroller912 @robin @koendb for managing to get out just before @jamesbisset turned up. S...

@tv101 I did return to the channel and had a nice chat with @jamesbisset.

@tv101 I would like to say we missed you but ,,,,,,,,,

@koendb There are some quick and easy methods of checking the neck angle to get the bridge height without using mm scales which are hard to read. I have a violin tool which is a ready guide but it wou...
