@cheesewhisk someone bought me a set of these after I drilled through on another non guitar project courtesy of slipping flag, use them for any job on nice wood if a hand drill is involved!

I only have stain as opposed to paint and no spray gear. The potential for making it worse is definitely there if I do try to “fix” it 😬 Anyway, who told you about the drill bits and chisel fe...

Cheers @boo, I only have stain as opposed to paint and no spray gear. The potential for making it worse is definitely there if I do try to “fix” it 😬 Anyway, who told you about the drill bits ...

@tej First of all, I think the guitar looks great, great job. If it was me, I would leave it, the glue doesn’t really stand out that much and it’s not in a noticeable place. If I really did want to ...

@robin thanks for the feedback! Unfortunately the glue is in the grain a little too so I’m not convinced either will actually work, why I didn’t mask it before glueing is beyond me 😔

@tej Thats looking really good, the depth to that green is great. Try scraping the glue residue with a blade, I think you could be more accurate in what you're removing that with wire wool. I wouldn't...

@koendb thanks 🙏 I checked around the join, there’s a gap (😔) on one corner where I’ve not fully seated it in the pocket on one side, I’d need a feeler gauge to measure it so it’s smal...

@Tej Wow man really nice result ! I really dig the color as well.Regarding the neck position, can it be that it not only is seated a bit lower, but also that it moved back a little bit? that might exp...

Finally after finishing, having to sand back and re-apply the finish I have the neck in. Now, one of us, let’s say me, seems to have left a thin coat of glue residue where the heal of the neck joins t...

I’ve used a round file before. I use a really fine, thin, round file @boo I’ll have to look at the type of file you’re talking about, I have a half round mini file that might to, between that, @rock...

clean out the finish build up from post holes by running a sharp knife carefully round the inside @rocknroller912 thanks for the idea, i think the initial layers will be cured hard by now, I can test...

That’s a lot of work @mattbeels It is indeed but it’s what I need to do. Next time I will glue the neck in and then put a cap over the whole body top to cover the joint. They are both challenging in ...

This is the skim fill for those pinholes. I just need to sand it back with some 240 and then it’s time for some high build primer. Attachment : EE2B77B6-8BD0-4AEE-9702-A25EC0BBCD47.jpeg

It’s looking a bit better now, I’ve feathered out the paint around the repair and I just need to skim fill those tiny pinholes (final filler coat). Attachment : E9601E86-BF20-424E-9819-7D747E6C72...

I applied a second coat if filler (after sanding the first one back a bit) and sanded it fairly flat. I’ll probably get it spot on with the next filler coat. Attachment : 6C9CFFE8-C19C-4500-B970-...

Time for a little filler. I’m using a two component, lightweight filler that can be sanded within a few minutes of curing, which is about 10 mins. I first drilled a load of holes, only about 5mm deep,...

You've got all the bagpress toys. I think I need to befriend him. 🙂 @bpower He is a very nice chap, I’m sure he will be glad to help you out. @darrenking The guitar is looking awesome.... f...

very cool @boo. You've got all the bagpress toys. I think I need to befriend him. 🙂 I've only got one of his toys. Maybe in time. The guitar is looking awesome.... for an electric. he he he.
