Keruing is a species of tropical type hard wood which is impervious to rot because of its oily content. It's used in outdoor applications where there are extremes of climate and rough wear eg the mili...

^^ the spray coat on that is also *really* thin. I asked the guy to use as little paint as possible, and definitely no grain filler preparation. if you look at, you can see the grain of the wood on ...

Has anyone else just painted over a joint and it be fine? Is that an acceptable thing to do? Funny you should ask that JohnBoo ... Attachment : 20190616_122016.jpg Attachment : 20190616_12...

Thanks Darren

Hi Seth, I am afraid that you have to ditch the fretboard and start again. 1mm out will be easily detectable and given how much work the rest of the guitar is going to take it would be crazy to carry ...

Yes its off by 1mm. I measured with a little $9 angle-izer.

Without getting my trig tables out, I don’t know the answer to this ... but I’m guessing that a 1deg error across the width of a fretboard is less than a 1mm error? How did you manage to measure a 1de...

Hi everyone, just started my first build, i was cutting the fret slots by hand and some of the slots are off by 1°. Is there a tolerance? Is there anything I can do, or is this fret board destined fo...

I quite like the idea of a whisky barrel top body and trying to keep the original print. @robin I have thought about using whiskey barrel tops too, I think they would look great. I like making Barnca...

nice work mate. I like the guitar with the blue inlay. @roel Thank you, the inlays are coloured epoxy resin. Any holes or eyes in the wood I just filled with epoxy and sanded flat when cured, it’s qu...

@johnnierox-boo nice work mate. I like the guitar with the blue inlay. cheers

@eddie6string I like your "CR8" that looks good. I quite like the idea of a whisky barrel top body and trying to keep the original print.

@deej The neck build was the first of Mark's live streams that I watched, I think I was hooked there and then. I only stumbled on it by chance, I was googling to find out how a truss rod works.

@deej try this great program, really helped me out with fret positioning for multi-scale. you can print of the templates etc, and use it in design software.

@rocknroller912 Two experts with different opinions? No! You’re shitting me!! You want to try dealing with hifi speaker designers. I must have dealt with more than 20 in the last couple of decades and...

Really interested to see how this works out @rocknroller912. Printed circuit boards are great if you're making hundreds/thousands of the thing, and then all you need to worry about is putting the comp...
