Just joined the site (though have been watching the workshops on weds and sats). @maabbottttt Hey, welcome man. That’s a nice looking guitar, well done. 👍

You would have to ask Mark. I think it was a piece of mahogany stuck on the inside of the top/side and then planed out. Mark had pictures of the construction but I can’t find them on my iPad anymore.

But I predict option 3 is a social experience you'll never forget (especially if they can have more than one person on a workshop) I’ll never forget the first 3 experiences @jonhodgson 😉 I’v...

Option two or three. If you can't wait, or budget is important, option 2 But I predict option 3 is a social experience you'll never forget (especially if they can have more than one person on a worksh...

Hi Mike @mabbottttt (interesting username 😉 ) Good to see you here. And even good-er to see the pics - thanks for posting those. I’m torn at the moment; buy a Moonshiner try a home build M...

Greetings! That looks lovely! What's the construction around the bevel?

Just joined the site (though have been watching the workshops on weds and sats). tv wanted to see my Moonie (the guitar) with the bevel so will try and put a couple of photos on. Attachment : 04...

Hey Dave, no worries. If paper cannot slide in it. Should be ok. Next time around, what really helped me, Mark has a method on radiusing pre cut fret wires by hand. I tend to do that even when I my fr...

Lol thanks again everyone! I’m thinking I’m going to have a lot of leveling to do! Much appreciated advice and I hope all is well in the UK!

.003" is nothing between friends... 😎 Pretty sure it will be just fine. Let us know if you have any bother down the line...try harder next time?

Nothing feels loose but I’m wondering if I blew it or should I just carry on? @usadave It’s fine Dave, carry on, seat them as best you can and so long as they are not loose, they will be fine. It’s ...

I say keep going too Dave - as long as you can't hook a finger nail underneath the frets or see the gap (without tools borrowed from NASA) then "job's a good un" 🙂 That neck looks great.

Cheers! Much appreciated confidence booster! Thanks again! -D

@usadave Dont be too hard on yourself. You're probably making a comparison with factory guitars which are mostly made on CNC machines these days and a hand built guitar is never going to achieve that ...

Lol I am a total amateur but thanks man! I had some light weight paper laying around so I put my dial caliper on it so truth be told it’s a little bit of a guess. Could be .003? I’ll carry on and do ...

@usadave You’ve got frets that are sitting .002”above the fretboard? Get out of here you bloody amateur!!! Haha, just kidding! Don’t sweat it man, you haven’t blown it. How do you even measure .002” a...

hi Everyone! So putting frets in even following the advice of Mark’s excellent tutorials is quite stressful! Attachment : B34BE705-8221-423C-BE86-BDB5B0979AC9.jpeg Attachment : 4527C941-42...

@mattbeels I enjoy the highline videos, but his drum sander is an example of a beltless design

@darrenking And here it is stuck in and sanded flush and with a bit of alcohol spray to make it look pretty. That jack plug insert is a touch of genius, and beautifully fitted in too.
