Yikes! that's a lot of work, @Wayne_F on yer shoulder, no doubt. I was fortunate to find a couple of guitar builders whom sent me a couple of neck blanks at a fantastic price...2 3/8" x 4 1/4" Quart...

My next handmade tool is not as extravagant as the sander but it works. I had some old roller skates in the shed. I took the bearings out of them and make a fretwire bending tool. Not fancy but it wor...

Very nice work indeed @bpower

Awesome work @bpower!

Here are a few more progression pictures of my wifes guitar. I think next time I'm going to handle the arm bevel a little differently but, overall I'm pretty pleased with it. Not perfect by any means ...

@jamesonguitar Welcome to the group, I'll be watching with interest as I intend to build an acoustic at some point, also by following Mark's course. While I admire you're dedication to sanding, I thi...

Cheers! yeah, basically by the time i finished, the acrylic arrived… but i learned something: sanding can be fun, for a while with some music on. And buy a hand sander!

@jamesonguitar And buy a hand sander! A hand plane is a very useful tool too, and much .more fun than sanding.

Welcome @jamesonguitar. Cool video. I agree with @robin. You have a lot more patience than I do. I would not have made it through that much sanding. :). Great perseverance. I was watching and think......

Thanks Bpower. I quite enjoyed the meditative part of it really. But it would probably be a waste of time to do it very often! in answer to both of you about hand planes… i have bought two, but they a...

@jamesonguitar I think you’re doing ok so far and you’ve made a good video.

Cheers, much appreciated! i actually had made an error that i didn’t get on camera so didn’t bother explaining . In charging ahead i had forgotten you have to keep the heel block from the neck blank...

Hey @jamesonguitar. The second build is going soooooo much better now that I know what to expect and I know the parts that I really messed up with my first one. I know the parts that I needed to slow ...

That’s great to hear! I have a long way to go to get to your point… but really enjoying the process along the way

Hi all, I've bitten the bullet and signed up for the fantastic acoustic guitar making course here! I am a complete novice with any sort of woodworking... so this may end up being a little hard than ...

Hello there @stephen, sounds like you’ve already gotten great advice and encouragement. This is a super cool place to be, welcome!

Again, thank for the welcome - and I'm sure great advice. I'm just about finished my 2nd kit build, I've learned A LOT - some of which I'll go back and apply to my 1st kit and even some of my more aff...

I'm *just* manly enough to go into Screwfix 🙂 I don't want to get laughed out of a lumber yard for building a guitar and not a house 😉 @stephen No, don’t think like that. The lumber y...

Looking great @markbailey I miss that workshop view, the live streams were lockdown therapy. I hope you're doing ok, best to Carol.

Beautiful work @markbailey, I hope you and Carol are well!
