@tv101 and @rocknroller912 I still haven’t made a LP type geetar yet. If only we knew someone with a CNC machine that could make us a set of routing templates. 🤔 @darrenking 😉😂

You're welcome @rocknroller912 As Mark is fond of saying - it's just a matter of breaking things down into simple steps and then there's usually a way of getting the job done. There are probably other...

@tv101 Thanks a lot that’s all very clear and just what I was looking for. I thought there would be a smart way I just couldn’t think of it. I’ve got bottom bearing cutters. Starting to think about wo...

@boo Proper job

it's not like one those xmas cards that spreads glitter everywhere when you open the envelope is it. @robin No, I would never send anything with metal flake, it gets everywhere, it’s a nightmare. It’...

@tv101 You’ve just ruined the surprise. Thanks @boo, it's not like one those xmas cards that spreads glitter everywhere when you open the envelope is it. 🙂

You do realise that the bit @Boo sends you will be painted in pink glitter paint before he sends it?? @tv101 You’ve just ruined the surprise. 🤣 @robin Its in the post and on it’s way, depend...

You're really not far wrong there, Although I thought I was probably exaggerating, I've spent enough time driving around the West coast of Scotland to know that it probably wasn't a huge exaggeration...

@tv101 Or, about 100miles away on Scottish roads. Which is generally about 20miles as the crow flies on the West coast ... You're really not far wrong there, it's a 130 mile drive there, 60 miles ...

No worries Robin. I was pretty sure that I had some when I posted last night, but didn't want to offer it until I'd checked today. You do realise that the bit @Boo sends you will be painted in pink gl...

@robin I would say that’s a pretty good repair and it looks like the grain lines match. Don’t be put off by how many attempts it takes before you are happy with it. I’ve seen web posts from top profes...

@boo Thanks for that, you're a star. @Rocknroller912 I took your advice and chiselled a bit out to make a straight line and glued a piece in. I had two goes at it, my first effort was pathetic so I c...

Thanks @tv101, but boo got in before you.. I do have a little bag of rosewood magic dust, in my hut at the caravan though, a 7 hour round trip away.

@rocknroller912 *Before* you put the cap on (assuming that's what you're going to do), rout the cavities into the body. And the wiring channels too. Do *NOT* forget the wiring channel up to the p'up...

@tv101 You mentioned that you’ve made an LP style so I’m looking for some advice please about how to route the pick up cavities. Obviously a flat template isn’t going to work very well either before o...

Hey @boo & @deej. Have you ever seen Alex Lifeson's acceptance speech at the Rock n Roll hall of fame? 🤣😂 🎸🙏🎶🙂

Some great posts/songs....my song of the moment

Coincidentally, this track isn't called "Hitch Hikin'" either ... 🤣 🤣 🤣
