@boo I like @Rocknroller912 's idea of replacing one big chunk and re-routing all the cavities. Then seeing @darrenking 's idea of a CNC repair block and matching template, I like that better. Maybe D...

@jonhodgson Interesting using the nails to pin it, the technique I've seen is to drill a hole through the fret slot (I can't remember the size) and use a toothpick (with the end broken off, so it's b...

I don't think I found the nail hole on the 10th fret when I lowered the fretboard onto the neck. I think you've hit the nail on the head there @cheesewhisk, if the pins are located then it just can't...

@mattbeels But if I catch anyone talkin’ shit about my doilies and table runners there’s gonna be hell to pay! Is there a link to the "hell to pay" website, I should maybe subscribe.

@russ @deej The plan is for the strings to be straight up from the nut and parallel to each other. Time will tell, I want to lacquer the body before I press the bridge posts in, so it might be a whi...

Thats the tuner holes lined up at last, all the butchery is hidden under the washers. Also reshaped the headstock a little to make the holes an equal distance from the edge and to give the D tuner kno...

@koendb I could not get these tuners to line up properly Sounds like you need a CNC router. I had a similar problem lining up just three a side. I plugged and redrilled 4 of the holes, and two of t...

Nice, does it come with pre-programmed learning curves.

Looking good @clinton, what finish are you going to put on it?

@tej So this sounds like a great idea in theory as one thing I don't want to do is put a lot of effort to ultimately make something that's really silimar to something I already have. You can build t...

That rosette's a good job well done @steveadams. I'll have to do it sometime, how many times did you practice it.

Must be very satisfying@robinwhen a repair job works well. @russ It definitely is satisfying. After cursing myself for stupid errors or accidents, I quite enjoy the "fixing things" aspect of guitar...

And now on to the next fix. Two of the tuner holes are out of line, so plugged and try again. Attachment : 20210407_162210.jpg

@tv101Is there an echo? @boo that'll be an attempt to catch up with you on the leaderboard 🙂

@boo's little bit of glitter free rosewood arrived this morning. I didn't take any chances, went out to the shed and opened the envelope very carefully, but still got a fright. Attachment : 202104...

Take it easy Mark, all in your own good time.

You're a very inventive man @darrenking, you see a problem and then you solve it, good work.

@rockpile99 That's a good looking build, well done.

Is a guitar making video game a possibility I can just it see now, a long haired guy disappearing in a cloud of sanding dust while an unseen female voice tells him put his mask on 🙂

@tv101 @Rocknroller912 Then drill through the cap into the middle of the p'up cavities - the hole just needs to be big enough for a router bit to fit through. I did my LP'ish body the opposite wa...
