I prefer a router with guide bearing

@tv101 Yeah I’ve done that before too, the router is a good option. 
I see you have been busy today with the like button. Hahaha…… 

Is there a better way? @tv101 I just used one edge of an MDF board that was cut in the factory (it is straight), then mark up for the other edge. I then put on a long aluminium clamp as…   Read more»

@tv101 The first time I saw a video of Foxes and Fossils was a few years ago. I couldn’t believe what I was hearing and seeing. It’s a video from 2010 and the girls were 15 and 16 years old…   Read more»

Macassar ebony?

@tv101 I’m not sure actually, I bought it off Mark a while ago, I’ll have to ask him. @markbailey Mark, what kind of Ebony is this, can you remember? 

@tv101 Great review Tony, very detailed. I’ll be glad to contribute my opinion so thanks for sending it on, I appreciate it and thanks Darren for including me. 

I’m still wondering what wood to use for my neck blank.   @tv101 I’m using Cherry for the neck and a nice piece of Ebony for the fretboard. I think I’m progressing fairly quick because I’m using all of my jigs…   Read more»

@tv101 awesome thanks!

Would the lentils and socks be clearly labelled – so we could tell them apart?? @tv101 Maybe they come as a set and after 3 strikes one would have to use Mark’s socks to strain the lentils with! Ahhhhhhh……. 

You know the rules Deej.
Three strikes and you …..
….
….
…. have to eat a pot of lentils.

@deej @tv101 Or, maybe it’s 3 strikes and you have to eat one of Mark’s socks! @markbailey 

@tv101 I’m going to be trying that on my next neck build … so perfect timing!! I’m going to have a go at that too. My maple neck blank is wide enough to spare a 20mm slice off the side,…   Read more»

Nice start Mr Boo!

@tv101 Thanks man, I’m going to enjoy this build very much. 

Work (the paid sort) has just got madly busy. @tv101 You are lucky in that respect, I’ve very little paid income atm. I’m a gardener and my season has been devastated by Covid. I’ve had a few jobs in recent…   Read more»
