@rocknroller912 – I doubt it – they’re compressed mp4 files (which is why they might look a bit blurry sometimes). The first time was a user error, last night’s problem seemed to be the laptop shutting down.  I assumed it…   Read more»

@rocknroller912 A fair point, have to say though it’s frustrating where I have screwed up it’s meant things have become more interesting and made me try things I wasn’t planning to at this stage.

Hi @Rocknroller912 The key thing is not to sharpen it like a normal plane. Yes the steel will be softer that you may be used to but it needs to be, otherwise you would stand no chance of turning the…   Read more»

@rocknroller912 that is a lot of necks you gonna be building with those 🙂

I have all the original paperwork to prove it’s legally sourced. Also there more in the loft.

@rocknroller912 Good stuff, I’m impressed. 👍

Now the big question – ebony or rosewood fretboard.

@rocknroller912 Are you opening a new supply shop? 😳🤩

@rocknroller912 can’t see why you’d need to as it’s not going to be pushing on any wood. I can’t find any examples on the internet where anyone’s taken a fillet that far either. Apprécie though I don’t fit into the…   Read more»

Thanks everyone…@bpower @koendb @mattbeels @rocknroller912 @russ Really appreciate your comments..I’m afraid to say that I had to sack my assistant, he was making too many demands and becoming very high maintenance…!!! Next video coming v soon… Thanks @markbailey I was…   Read more»

@rocknroller912 makes sense, I can’t say it’s one of the bits of the Build I’m looking forward to honestly. Mostly when I’ve used the stuff whatever it’s in seems to seal up part way through squeezing the stuff out then…   Read more»

@rocknroller912 the glue in the fret slots isn’t to hold the fret in (or at least it shouldn’t be), it’s to solidify and stiffen the fretboard.

@rocknroller912 frets, not ferrets.
 Edit function!?!?!?

I don’t use superglue for inlays or anything else if I can avoid it. @rocknroller912 so the way the lesson shows putting frets in seemed to involve dropping superglue down until the gap is filled, surely white/yellow glue simply isn’t…   Read more»

@rocknroller912 I’ve seen the super glue accelerator used by various people along with liberal use of superglue for inlays and frets. I’m presuming the accelerator evaporates and leaves nothing on the wood? A lot of the time though the glue…   Read more»

I just happen to be next to it at the moment so here’s what it’s like. You can see how clean the holes drill for dots It looks so smooth @rocknroller912. I guess it has no grain running through it….   Read more»

You could still rescue your pliers if you have a good blow lamp by using the above process. @rocknroller912 got consigned to the tip with the Aldi doom router as they just chipped. Have you got a link to said…   Read more»

Cheers @rocknroller912
I just watched someone on YouTube saying that very same thing. The traditionalist in me still wants to use natural wood but maybe it’s the way forward. 🤔🤨

@jonhodgson @rocknroller912 Thanks guys, appreciate the guidance, clearly need to take more care next time I do similar 🙂 It didn’t help only having access to a mini grinder as trying to get the end flat was tricky to say…   Read more»

There’s no rules to this thread right ?

There might not be any “rules” @rocknroller912, but there are some higher powers at work if you try to post something that’s inappropriate …

Thanks for filling in the blanks on black plastic, I thought there would be a longer story.

@rocknroller912 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Cajun is a bit like Guinness either love it or hate it

@rocknroller912
I love Cajun food, ‘specially them crawlpappy’s!
