@robin I was planning on doing an oil finish.

Hey there @wayne_f! Welcome to the forum and great job so far on all you’ve done. 👍

Looks good @wayne_f. On the next fillet just get it close but not fitting in the slot. Then sand it to the final thickness with a sanding block to get the snug fit you want.

@wayne_f looks good! Nice progress and thanks for the vid:-)

Not much got done today but did I manage to do the rough cut of the neck shape and a fillet for the truss rod slot. That defect I mentioned before (which was the very tip of a shake and only few mm de...

One of the best things about the course is that it's broken into sizable sections @cheesewhisk, yes. I've watched a few of the live streams and about half way through the course. Mark makes it look s...

Hi Whyte, Life’s other commitments are always a problem when it comes to something as complex as building a guitar. I have tended to commit whole, or half, days to it at the weekends, as interruptions...

@Tej Wow man really nice result ! I really dig the color as well.Regarding the neck position, can it be that it not only is seated a bit lower, but also that it moved back a little bit? that might exp...
