Might be able to see me at the front @tv101…
although IIRC I was a little wasted 🤩

@tv101 Yup that too. I got 5 of them. One for thicknessing, with a big baseplate permanantly attached. A small palm for binding. A big one for excessive material removal, I do a lot chambering hollow bodies, my all time…   Read more»

@tv101 thanks for the wisdom and advice! Do you recommend a specific brand of “time” and where to buy it? 😛 But yeah I hear ya. I think I will need to practice patience and get good at that.

Think you are heading for the naughty step with the Carol comment

“learning opportunity”!

The common factor in my learning opportunities is the router. I need to spend some time learning to tame it, the fine adjustment seems to have a mind of it own.

@tv101 Just so you know, I really tried stalling for your lawn mowing. I actually screw down the ends of the chunk of wood on scrap and I screw side walls for the router base when I surface route the…   Read more»

Excellent video

@tv101 Thanks Tony, I just thought it would be easier for everyone if I made a video rather than type everything out. 

The fret slot jig from @darrenking that @tv101 sent me is an excellent prototype. My first impression was that it is an intuitive design so leaves little for the user to figure out. I say if you can get something…   Read more»

Nice burner @boo!!!

@tv101 Yeah thanks, it keeps the house warm in the winter. We don’t use the central heating, no need. I don’t have a guitar graveyard, I cremate the dead ones! 🤣 

@tv101

Ridiculously, I’d never thought of making veneers with the router

I had thought of it, but you talked me out of it. The postman came empty handed today, he’ll be back again on Monday.

@tv101 Dang – Beat me to it – Cheers! @robin For next time I’ll show you TODAY at 1pm how to make a veneer if you don’t have a Sander Thicknesser… Go for it @deej! We are going to add…   Read more»

Temptress!!

Patience @tv101

@tv101

Postie should deliver a little package tomorrow.  Hope it helps.

Thanks TV, much appreciated.  I had the router out again today, managed to put a radius on the front edge of the body without any mishaps, things are looking up.

“Good morning Mrs Boo, here’s a card, I’m just off to the workshop, call me when lunch is ready” @tv101 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Yeah, as funny as that is, she may not let me back in the house for my lunch! 

@tv101 I’ve received the jig you sent from @darrenking so I’ll have a play with it this weekend (I would have a look tomorrow but it’s my wedding anniversary). 

@tv101 Thanks Tony, I’ll look out for it.
