@brie Hi. I am indeed a premium subscriber and have already watched the course twice over! That mensheds idea is brilliant, I'll check it out! Thanks.

@swepri got a coping saw for the squiggly bits.

Today I smoothed out the back and front and did the neck heel transition area. Attachment : 20231029_154154.jpg

Got the top glued on then today I rough cut out the shape, still a bit of refining to do though then it's onto routing and carving Attachment : 20231028_144123.jpg Attachment : 20231027_1...

Got the frets levelled, crowned and polished today then glued on the wings. Hopefully tomorrow I can get the top glued on at some point. This was one of my best fret jobs, hardly any levelling needed ...

@nsj That’s good n’y’ews about the lack of toxicity. Wonder if the guy you bought your guitar from is still in the village. 👍😃🎸

@brie St Cyrus! That was it. Gourdon is past johnshaven. I was trying to remember them in order going from Montrose lol. Bought my first electric from a guy in St Cyrus, he played the cult lil devil o...

I've been a wee bit more productive today. I glued a stop block onto my workbench and sharpened my plane blade, that helped things along. So got the rest of the braces done and marked out where they g...

Nice braces they are too @robin. 🙂🙏🎸🎶

@russ thanks, can't wait to get started!

Welcome @nortski. You'll love it. 🙂🙏🎶🎸

Guitar building in a studio apartment, I hope you have very understanding neighbours!!🤣🤣 Anyway, welcome the forums, enjoy your guitar making journey and, perhaps most importantly, sta...

Never held a saw in my life but I'm super excited to start my guitar making journey. Not sure how I'll accomplish this within my studio apartment but I've just ordered a router so now I'm committed ha...

Hi GM community! I’m about to embark on a Tele build - my third build (pics below of first two) - and decided I should join a forum because I’ll definitely need some help. I’m looking to do an HH Te...

@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👍...

Got a little bit more done today, top cut out and been cutting down the centre block to allow room for the top. Added a bit of angle for more bridge clearance Attachment : 20231025_005014.jpg ...

@swepri A40640 module, do fancy doing other stuff but that means making the effort to learn and I'm not always good at that lol I've seen guys on guitar building fb groups doing all sorts
