@brie thanks Brian, that is useful. Thank you!

Hi folks, I've got a decent powered router, but it's plunge depth is only 35mm, which is severely limiting competing the control cavity. I've been looking at the DEWALT DCW604NT as I've got the matchi...

@cafebrouge hey, nice guitars! Similarly, I can't help with advice on specific groups, but you will find a lot of helpful knowledge in the members of this forum. It might be worth floating your questi...

@nsj I had a bit of an experiment with acetone just on making a binding repair glue, to hide gaps and repair chips rather than fix the binding to the fretboard. I found cellulose dissolves quicker tha...

@nsj totally 😅. The little hosco fret saws are amazing, but it still takes a while. I used uhu Hart glue. I got it from Rothko and it worked pretty well. Turns out it sets quite hard too ...

@nsj cheers, yes I've got one of those. Just a bit more fiddly with binding than without!

@brie good work Brian!

After a brief hiatus, I've moved on with carving the neck profile, radiusing the board, installing front dots and adding a headplate. I seem to be making design decisions a bit on the fly. The positio...

@swepri thanks buddy!

@nsj thank you, this is really helpful.

Hey @nsj, I've watched the vid they do on Osmo. He uses an Osmo woodwax oil (I guess similar to finishing oil) before applying the Osmo polyx finish. Is that what you did too? I thought the polyx was ...

Thanks @nsj I'll check that out @russ I don't have any more photos, but essentially I'm clamping directly on to my bench top. It was all a bit of an experiment and I had planned to cut some holes in t...

@brie no shame in that, I'm sure it still rocks!

@nsj yeah, good suggestion! I've not done it on this neck, but I have another 1" blank and a small selection of veneers. Could look pretty cool. Apologies in advance for the incoming interrogation! Wi...

@brie thank you. Nice Bo Diddley vibes on your build, looks great! I've got some of crimson's stains, but not their oils. I used liberon finishing oil on my last build, is crimson's much different to ...

Hi folks, After the relative success of my first electric build (and it's subsequent sale, woohoo!) I wanted to push myself (my luck) on my second build with a few experiments.. First I wanted to try ...

Mine are all one way. I've not watched that video yet. The truss rod recommended for the Bandsman build is a slimline 2 way and that fits into a neck with glued fretboard without issue, if that helps.

Hey @swepri, I've not made any bit on necks yet, but I've set up quite a few guitars with bolt on necks. The vintage approach is to have the adjustment in the heel. Fender later changed it to the head...
