Hey @darrenking. I just wanted to let you know I am really impressed with the slot cutting jig. The quality is very impressive. Can't wait to start making my own fretboards. Great design, and being a ...

Thanks @markbailey. I have not carved the braces. Will carve them the day I'm ready to glue it on. I will keep the clamps on it though to help prevent as much movement as I can. 🙂

Storing the back - TIP! After gluing the braces on to the back you should not carve them until you are ready for assembly - If you are leaving it for some time there is a danger of it changing shape.....

All looking Great @bpower. 👍😁 🎶🙂🎸🙏

Decided to get the back ready before the front. I have it at the point where it can wait for the front and sides to be done. Left the braces thick. Ill carve them right before I am ready to put it tog...

I'm on the east coast of canada @darrenking. Still decent temperatures here. I was raining and chilly the last few days. I do not envy the west coast of canada right now with the heat and the fires. I...

Looks like you’ve bought some great products there BPower! I took delivery of some soundboards from NW Canada only last week and I really hope you’re not in one of the stupidly hot regions, doesn’t lo...

PLEASE DO NOT USE WD40 FOR ANYTHING. Thanks for that @boo. That explains the flaking paint on a refurb I did a few years ago. My partner’s dad was a watchmender. She knew that cleaning a watch might...

WD40 is mostly fish oil in case anyone didn’t know.

@mattbeels Trust you to lower the tone of the conversation

considering how much money people will pay for a reliced guitar maybe there's a business opportunity here for a whole new class of buggered finish? @jonhodgson 🤣🤣🤣🤣&#x...

@boo considering how much money people will pay for a reliced guitar maybe there's a business opportunity here for a whole new class of buggered finish?

So, for the sake of all the other newbies on here, can someone please gives us instructions on making an oily rag? lint free? Cotton? Acrylic? Three-in-one? Engine oil? Where does WD40 fit in? @james...

I had an oily rag once but I had to let her go. She was just too… oily… and raggy, is that even a word?!?

Still, there is a special satisfaction to be had by undertaking the whole process. @darrenking thanks for the link, yeah I’m aware it likely won’t save a fortune but doing everything end to end is th...

@bpower legendary quantities of tape, adds to the anticipation 🙂

@koendb nice job. As for a router planer jig there are a lot of examples of both diy ones and shop bought ones in the internet. Design is pretty much standard across them all. Someone did post one the...
