Posted by: @rocknroller912 Which side will be thicker, the treble or bass @rocknroller912 The bass side is thicker. Just finished sanding the other one to 2.15~2.25mm

Posted by: @rocknroller912 Side bending is best done in one go. The longer you leave it the more the wood will dry and become brittle. @rocknroller912 Ah I did not know that. Luckily for me, it seem...

@powerful That is coming together nicely! I can only hope my attempt will end up as clean as yours 🙂

Posted by: @robin is it side bending next. I dont know yet. I am trying to figure out whether I need to plane down the sides a little more ( I am now at 2.4mm~ 2.6mm) Since I have some leftovers fro...

Posted by: @rocknroller912 I don’t see any need to fill the gap in purfling. I’ve never seen anyone else do it. Posted by: @darrenking You definitely don't need to fill these gaps. OK Then! Than...
