@koendb Yes it’s hard to find a balance that feels good and a neck that’s too thin can be hard to play I find, as well as being unstable.

@rocknroller912 Thinking about alignment I’m contemplating extending the template to the length of the body pretty much so that way I’ll get the smallest margin of error with alignment, in theory!

@ndakota I quite like the white colour of the pine, the other side is brown though. Attachment : 20201113_165902.jpg

@robin Good finish, Danish Oil is my favourite and good point about the cloths. I know a violin maker who burned his workshop down by throwing wet cloths in a bin full of wood shavings

Great work @tej! In my experience when scraping the fretboard you‘ve got to do it all for it to look the same. Sucks but…

After a few failed neck pocket template attempts, I made an adjustable jig for making the pocket template from based on a design posted previously on the forum then used that to route the template: ...

I’ve been searching my scrap pile for bits to make the body on my practice build and came up with these. Philippine Mahogany on the outside and an old bit of Mahogany window frame in the middle, all p...

@rocknroller912 all down to personal preference I guess, personally love a neck to be super thin but know people who love and hate either extreme.

@russ I didn’t word my post very well and what I meant to say was that I’m ok with someone telling me it’s not good enough yet

Awesome work @clinton!

Nice body @clinton. 😁 🎶🙏🎸🙂

@louis123 Congratulations a great project, I hope it plays as good as it looks.

Still a bit more to remove from the back profile. I was waiting to get an opinion from someone who plays electric. It’s still too chunky apparently which I’m ok with, good to get feedback as you go al...

@cheesewhisk Looks like you’ve nailed it

I think technically it was @mattbeels that first said I sucked at using a router 🤣 but who am I to argue. No one will ever see it so it's all good. I really need to get back to this, crappy ...

That's nice! I think I'll give it a bit of colour more cause I like the brown rather than that white.. though the effect seems good and with some coats more and good sanding it can also become more sa...

@ndakota This is the finish that I got on pine with Danish Oil, I think it was three coats. As for disposal of the oiled cloths, I layed mine out on a concrete slab to dry, once they're dry you can bi...

@ndakota there's a video where Chris from Highline Guitars talks about how he handles oil soaked rags (or, more precisely, "handled" as he now uses alternative finishes when he wants the oil look). Yo...
