RE: Fret pullers and other animals

RE: Fret pullers and other animals

@russ speed isn’t really an issue here as there’s a lot to do before I need something I don’t have! Waiting on a new truss rod, at the moment anyway before I get started.

RE: In the beginning we mark the nut...

Stalled at the start line, so after deciding to go with the longer fretboard I needed a new longer truss rod, it arrived this morning but was the wrong one. I’d assumed “double action” what the same a...

RE: Fret pullers and other animals

@tv101 Thanks, they’re quite competitive to be fair but some things are clearly rebranded Hosco products which I’ve found cheaper elsewhere! Any idea where we stand ordering from there in terms of th...

RE: Not only do I suck at routing, I suck at gluing too.

@cheesewhisk so from one of your images I can see you’ve used pins to locate the board as Mark suggests, what I don’t get is how that’s meant you didn’t get it located where you wanted it. Consensus s...
