Thanks @tv101! A slow and steady process by hand. I think having z-poxy as a sealer helped stabilise the top and helped the crispness of the line.

You've all been very good builders, so you can have an update from me as a reward😅 I've got the necks glued on two of the builds on, with the third going under the clamps just now. I'm really...

@nsj looks very cool!

Hey @brie This is a link to the tops, nothing secret squirrel!

Cheers @Clinton, plenty left to do yet but the limba one recovered it's neck this morning

Hey @jamesbisset I find using whip tips to control the speed/application of ca glue a game changer and helps prevent bubbles.They often fit directly onto the bottle, but you can also decant a bit of ...

Hey @boo Thanks for your comments. It's only at grain filling stage at the moment. The z-poxy really brings out the figure in the wood and acts as a sealer to protect the stained top. As I said above,...

Thanks @tv101 I love what an oiled finish brings out in the wood, but I'd been looking for a finish closer to the qualities of lacquer, but without the need for spraying as it's just not an option in...

Hey folks, Thought I'd share an update on what I've been up to (whether wanted it or not). I know I wanted to build more even before finishing my second electric in January. I realised I'd 'accidenta...

Hi @jamesbisset, I'd you're doing a tester it might be worth trying the black thick ca glue from O3 adhesives. I've not used their black, but their clear ca is good, as is the accelerator. They're a...

@nsj utter madness, I absolutely love it! I supposed shielding the electrics shouldn't be a problem...

Hey @tv101, Well, it's a bit of a long story, but I'll keep it short as I've been meaning to pop a progress post up, but keep making progress and not taking any photos 🤦🏻 Anyway, I'm c...

Hi @somethingnicer, yes it's 12" radius on the fretboard. Hope your build is going well.

Cheers @russ 😅 I think it was planned as part of the fabled finishing course Mark was working on. Don't think I'll be able to provide mark's level of detail and if you don't hear anything, I'v...

Hey Dan, Welcome! I've followed your same route in to guitar building, and I have a sneaking suspicion partscasters are the gateway drug to all this! This forum is excellent and the members great. Ch...

Hey folks, I'm thinking of giving faux binding a do on a current build. I've done a bit of research and I'm looking for any advice from those with experience. My plan is to sand body up to 320. Lea...

@clinton, looking good! What wood are you using for the body?

@tyreman thanks for the suggestion!

@swepri thanks mate. I should have spent a bit more time researching before asking, but really appreciate you answering. Looks like I can get at 8mm collet for my router, after a bit of digging. I'll ...

Hi @swepri These have just come back into stock. It says they have an 8mm shank, my router has a 1/4. I'm wondering if these will fit my router as 1/4 works or about 6mm? Cheers
