Posted by: @tyreman but have drawn out a few full-scale plans including the 12 string, so not sure yet. I want to build a 12 string too, well at least it is on my bucket list, but first I hope to ge...

Posted by: @darrenking thanks guys, I’m feeling the love! Which reminds me.. I Still need to order one of those neck pocket routing jigs of yours.

Posted by: @boo What scale length is it? Is the bridge definitely in exactly the right spot? Just try measuring from the nut to the centre of the 12th fret, it should be exactly half of the intended...

Meh guys, I think my intonation is going to be off , I just tested with the both E strings and I am getting -10 cents on the low E and -8 on the high E at the 12th fret. I'll see what happens with the...

Autch guys! I do suffer from carpal tunnel and I should definitely get surgery for that, but I ve been postponing this since at least a decade if not longer. Other then that, no injuries so far

I am going to call this back done. Went over it with 1000, 1200 and 2000 grit, then rubbed menzerna rough cut twice, again 1200 and 2000 grit to get almost every speckle out, then again Menzerna 400 ...

Posted by: @tv101 Are we having a Tuesday night chat tonight, it being Tuesday? I am always up for it. Don't know at what time I will able to join yet

Well, I think I am slowly getting better results. My shellac/Alcohol mix ratio is probably better. Before it was way to thick. More alcohol seems to be the right answer in this case 😉It is nowhere nea...

Posted by: @rocknroller912 so here is a builder who does live streams that you can follow. Think he uses pumice powder as grain filler. It’s only a screen shot but you should be able to find him. ha...

Neck finishing... I decided to go for a shellac only approach. I did buy a bottle of clear filler, but when testing it, I was not really convinced I could use before having extensively tested that stu...

@powerful Great! That looks very neat and well executed. Fantastic job!
