Another option is to bind the 'fretboard' - I would do what @tv101 suggests first (fill it) and keep binding in reserve if not happy with the outcome.

@darrenking 's suggestion would make a higher quality repair if done well but it is a bit harder to pull off - you could try this first - you might surprise yourself!

RE: A workshop was born

After my first Bailey course, I went home and dismantled the unused potting shed that we'd put up on a concrete base. I then ordered a massive shed, way bigger than anything I'd ever need. I think it...

RE: Bugger!Bugger!Bugger!Buggering router bit slipped!

Is there a recipe for the mix or is it just pure witchcraft? I prefer to think of it as wizardry rather than witchcraft 😆 You'll need ... one dollop of wood glue and a large pinch or two of s...
