@tv101 My secret is mighty sight glasses and pilot holes, if I use them I can get them super straight every time 🤣

@tv101 CNC eh, hmmm. Surely that takes all the fun, excitement, frustration, blood,sweat, tears, satisfaction (delete as appropriate) out of this wonderful mad journey we’ve embarked upon!!🤣🤣
P.S. I’m only jealous I don’t have a CNC👍🤣🤣

@tv101

Good to see another build underway.  A nice warm-summer project (when you’re not at the caravan!).

I’m at the caravan now, but I’ve not been idle. Started to make the molds for forming the sides.

@tv101 mate used to work for carpenter oak in Scotland doing that very job, he travelled all over.

@tv101 Thanks a lot for that advice, I have tried the screw in bolt ferrules in the past with limited success, going to try the shortened screw in this build and attempt to match the same thread carefully when re-attaching…   Read more»

@tv101 Exhibition tape seems to be the answer.👍😃

@tv101 
Not at all JB is the one working on veneer and he’s got more experience than the rest of us. Experts are for,Ed in the white heat of experimentation. Cue the degree course in veneering

I know what you mean ….
🤣 🤣 😉 
 

@tv101 
JB seems to be the veneer expert 

@tv101 Not saying it’s terrible, just maybe not as good as having an actual piece of the wood lol. Worst case in this context 🤣 🤣

@tv101 Worst case you could maybe use random wood then add a veneer to match the top?

@tv101 I keep meaning to try that Osmo stuff. 
Your guitar looks great T, nice work. 

@tv101 An absolute improvement over the old finish!
I agree that the cavity cover should look better with same grain direction as the body. But is it possible to throw away the old one? It’s shaped like a boomerang. 😉 

@tv101 
Very nice, I like the natural finish. I don’t think that wood of the cavity cover necessarily has to match the body but I do prefer the grain in the same direction.

@tv101 but only one at a time instead of batches lol

That top looks great! As @tv101 said, amazing speed in your workshop. 🙂 

@tv101 🤣 😆 😉

@tv101 yeh but I’m handy too! 🤣
