@louis-kerckhove As the rest of the guys have said it won’t be noticed by 99% of people, it would be a shake to waste a good fretboard. I think it will suit the quirkiness of the rest of the build. It...

Hey Louis, It looks great to me, if it needs sanding then sand it, just make sure you do it evenly over the whole surface of the fretboard so that you don’t change the radius profile or cause hollows...

I think it looks fine Louis, I definitely wouldn’t worry about it. The vast majority of people won’t even notice. Once you’ve sanded those pencil marks off, put the frets on and put the strings on, i...

It still needs some sanding but i think i will stick with it. @louis-kerckhove I think it looks fine Louis, I definitely wouldn’t worry about it. The vast majority of people won’t even notice. Once ...

Attachment : 20210317_155338.jpg Hi, here is the fretboard. It still needs some sanding but i think i will stick with it. Louis

@tv1 hi, yes i have 3 weeks off. But i have some small task for school wich i spread throughout the 3 weeks. In the morning i do some tasks and in the afternoon i have time to build the guitar. I have...

In the morning i do some tasks and in the afternoon i have time to build the guitar. I have all my parts ready, so yes i am planning on finishing it in these 3 weeks! @louis-kerckhove Good for you Lo...

Home stretch @louis-kerkove. Yup Boo is right in the fretwire. Really do not want to mess around with inappropriate radius in fretwire. It is nerve wracking as it is already. 9.5 is too extreme for 12...

Update: Drilled the holes for the strap locks and tuners today. I also drilled a hole on the side of the body for the guitar cable, i made sure that the hole is far enough from my leg so that the cabl...

I stalling the buffing wheels/mops. There is a steel rod that goes into a hole in the steel shaft, this is to hold everything whilst you put one of the buffing heads/mops on and use washers, spacers a...

As you would imaging, when the lever is at the bottom, it is off, there is no rotation. As you raise the lever, the rotational speed increases. When the lever is all the way to the top, it’s on max sp...

Commission testing the machine before using. I plugged it in, turned it on and it worked. I played around with the speed with no problems, it works straight out of the box. Attachment : E2B8319A-...

Anchoring the machine to the corner of my work bench with screws and clamps.

It is highly advisable to anchor the machine to something solid, such as a sturdy work bench. There are a couple of options to do this, clamp it down or screw it down, access points have been made ava...

Installing the steel shaft. I couldn’t video this bit, I don’t have a head cam. 🤣 This video is after the fact but with an explanation of what I did.

**UPDATE** I forgot to mention that this is a prototype machine and not for sale yet, it’s in the testing phase at the moment. I installed the steel shaft by taking out the two grub screws from the s...

I do NOT want to be involved in a recall/refund program! Haha I can totally understand that 😉 I did not realize this was a demo of a 'prototype' 🙂 Great stuff none the less!

It's a safety thing to stop machine operatives from sewing their hands together! If only you'd told him that *before* he switched it on, and sewed his hands together ... 🤕
