@nsj thank you kindly for the response – my jig does not appear to be offset to be honest.

Russ replied to the topic "Using spalted tamarind as a fretboard" – 1 year, 9 months ago
@nolanrathkegmail-com You certainly can use it for fretboards. I’ve seen it used a couple of times. You might be lucky enough to not need to fill in any gaps but if you do I’d follow @nsj advice and use some… Read more»

@nsj Awesome! Thank you! Just curious, would resin (epoxy) work as good as superglue? This is my first time using spalted wood for guitars, so I have no idea what would be the best route to go about it lol

@nsj I found I needed to do this and was grateful of the length of the neck blank.
I guess if you’re making your own nut you can adapt the depth of the nut, within reason, too. -
Steve Handley replied to the topic "Ever get the feeling that a build is cursed?" – 1 year, 9 months ago
@nsj I wonder whether that’s it. I mean, on the one hand, I’m paranoid about the possibility of the router tipping and leaving those tell-tale grooves in the side of the neck, so I do try to keep the whole… Read more»

Steve Handley replied to the topic "Ever get the feeling that a build is cursed?" – 1 year, 9 months ago
@nsj well, I wondered about the bearing, but it spins freely by hand, and I used it afterwards on the other side of the neck without problem. The neck is samba, so it is relatively soft, but I’ve used the… Read more»

@nsj we’ll just jump on a plane and come on over. You can help carve some necks in the heat. 🤣 Make sure it’s somewhere between late July and mid-September to get the full experience though. Dog days of summer…. Read more»

@nsj I’ve got abalone dots on my current build, just the standard round ones. I’m looking forward to seeing the scaley dragon though. A bit too artistic for my talents, I’m an engineer, I do straight lines and defined curves.

@nsj Your bat inlay looks perfect, that’s something else I’ll have to try sometime. I had a try a while back using some shells off the beach here as inlay material, but the shell was to brittle and flakey when… Read more»

Nice work @nsj. Enjoy watching you “faffing about on YouTube” with this one.

@nsj that looks fantastic. A fancy inlay is something I’m still trying to build up the courage to do. 🙂

@nsj Very cool – and a great way to use all of your wood. I’m hoping to start finding old free tables to upcycle into guitars after I get a little more experience under my belt.

@nsj does that go over the headstock as a laminate or is the actual headstock? did you make a scarf joint for it?
