It looks great. Experience and practice pays off!

That's the truth!

@koendb Wow! Really impressing work and skills.

Incredible and amazing Koen. And the guitar too.

Bloody hell Russ! That's just made my evening! I've been away from this forum and my shed for too long but this post has spurred me on beyond belief. Thank you for taking the time to post this and to...

@russ cracking job buddy

@tv101 Pickup wiring colour codes?? You're onto something there, there is a need for a definitive list of pickup colours and obviously it'll have to include random unbranded items from ebay left ov...

Pickup wiring colour codes?? 😉

@tv101 carbon fiber is necessary for longer necks not so much guitars but primarily bass guitars especially if using certain types of tonewoods. If you are a bass guitar builder, it is almost always a...

@russ these are actually real gut frets, the strings themselves are Nylgut , but the frets need to be real gut. I believe because nylon is too stretchy. It sounds surprisingly loud for such a small in...

I use a router table for similar jobs, but I doublesticky tape the object to a larger chunk of wood or MDF, just to be safe....

@tv101 you don't do that, if it wants to go it goes! Never push into the cutter.

Call me a risk-averse wuss, but that'd be a case of fingers-a-bit-close-to-sharp-spinning-thing for my liking. I'd be very wary of the cutter grabbing the wood and natural reaction being to try to gra...

@rathius wooden covers, often to match the top. That router is set on 4 out of 6. No idea what the actual speed is. This one has an oak top, I laminated a piece of the oak to mahogany to make the c...

@nsj duuuuuuude!!!! I have been trying to think of a better way than my scroll saw to do that. What speed do you run it on when cutting the covers? Plastic I assume or are you making wooden covers?

@rathius Yeh bud, great for cavity covers etc.

@nsj so you’ve got a makeshift router table for small parts eh? Nice idea, I like it. 😁
