I’m just a goofball We have a saying in flemish: 'Knowing yourself is the start of wisdom' 😋

I like the vintage just before dinner look. @mattbeels haha, yeah that sentence came out weird. 😎

The rest - as you say - are probably more generic mahogany/sapele (the darker ones). Not sure what the lighter ones are, but don't look to be anything super-special. Yeah I think I will try to keep ...

Tonight , I applied stain ( amber, brown and yellow ) to give my neck an vintage look just before dinner. And this is how it looks after a coat of shellac I put on just an hour ago. Attachment : ...

Got some wood to practice using my handplaners and make scarf joints, etc...It is roughly cut and some pieces are probably unusable as a real neck because of knots. Maybe a few laminated necks with wh...

daft behaviour alongside sound information makes for a good forum. That is so true @boo!

Hi Mark, I hope your mum fully recovers fast and completely. No apologies needed at all, you make sure you take care of your family but also for yourself!

Right! That makes sense now! Good to know , Thanks Mark!

Besides the bolt-on course, I also watched the 'How to Make a One Piece Bolt On Guitar Neck with Skunk Stripe' on Youtube because I happen to have a maple blank for a one piece neck laying on my shelf...

Ah then the price difference is not as bad as I thought it would have been ( of course, still have to take into account import fees I guess )

Played a bit with my miter saw and scarf joints on cheap wood. This is what I have learned so far: Since I cannot cut from anywhere in the neck blank, I would need cut the angles for the headstock an...

@boo yeah that is probably a lot cheaper and does the job just as well. I initially though of using my side level file, which has a 45 and a 90 degree angle, but the file is just a bit too thick for a...

Use that carefully and the bottom of the nut slot should be flat, and perpendicular to the end of the fretboard. ordered the 1/8" one straight away! thanks @tv101 Attachment : IMG_20210419_...

of course the angle is 15 degrees of a vertical axis. I meant to say 12 degrees, but doesnt matter, I was wrong :-/

Today I discovered I can also angle the miter saw blade vertically. So I actually don't need a jig at all.I'm gonna try that tomorrow! Well that was a bummer.. of course the angle is 15 degrees of a ...

I'd buy this ! When can you ship? 🙂

@clinton oooh so sweet! That looks really good. I don't have a table saw nor a band saw. But I do have a miter saw. Today I worked a bit on some sheds in the garden, in order to move everything out of...

@Mattbeels and @clinton Great, I ll stick with 10 to 12 then.Scarf Joint/No Scarf Joint I'll leave that decision until I m able to at least test this with some scrap wood and my miter saw.Either way, ...

@e-den-hertog Awesome ! That looks really good to me. It may be Marks' design, but the choice and combination of woods and hardware looks so good. The finish is great and it seems like a well executed...
