@nsj thanks for this. I’m my stupidity I hadn’t considered bits beyond the 1/4 & 1″bits I have.🤷 The issue with the 35mm plunge is that I have a gap between how deep I can get the hole with the…   Read more»

@nsj Very nice work as usual. I would be tempted to route a shallow recess for the bridge to sit in rather than install a different bridge. All your screw holes and alignment is already there, it’s easier just to…   Read more»

@nsj That one turned out great!

@nsj The contact form on the shop page is the one I tried to use.

@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 than abs and, without…   Read more»

@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 🤦🏻. I…   Read more»

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

@nsj Thanks for that, never rush a finish, it’s one of the most enjoyable bits of a build, seeing the beauty of the grain pop out. Think this one might be finished for Christmas, just not sure which Christmas!!🤣🤣 Away…   Read more»

@nsj yeah, I’m not sure what happened. I was planning to do exactly that, but then didn’t 🙄 🤔

Wonder if the guy you bought your guitar from is still in the village.
👍😃🎸

@nsj Love that Yew top, full of character, just wondering if you need to take any special precautions working with it as it’s quite toxic?
St Cyrus by the way – you were close with your guess👍😃🎸

@nsj That’s about what I plan to do when gluing in the neck, time it so the heating is on so it gets a few hours in the warm and leave it overnight in the relevant warm. You’re not too…   Read more»

@nsj Yesterday, after doing some final shaping of the heel, volute and headstock, I’ve moved the body and neck indoors. They’re in the spare bedroom which isn’t central heated and the temp has been around 15degrees. Will probably leave it…   Read more»

@nsj Where did you get that laser? What brand? I think you mentioned it earlier, but I can’t find it now.

@nsj Glad to hear that your mini flood didn’t cause you too many problems, my shed wasn’t flooded but the wooden walls were well soaked by the persistent rain and wind, they are drying out slowly but there was a…   Read more»

@nsj  Good to hear you got off lucky and weathered the storm without too much damage. Over in the west we got the winds but not the rain this time, so trees down but no floods. The fallen trees dissappear…   Read more»

@nsj there are worse things to get obsessed with ☺️

@nsj
I’ve seen them interfering with your guitar building. 🤣 🐈‍⬛
