Has anyone else been getting links to these little gems! Toyah's actually quite conservatively dressed in this one! For a reportedly very serious musician RF seems to have been having an awful lot of ...

@darrenking and @tv101 Here is my idea for my fix. Darren I think that if I could just get out a routing template and repair block, this wouldn’t take long at all so I would seriously look into it.

Well @tv101 at least that idiot did some cool inlays!

Now, lets get it right this time ... @tv101 Oh yeah, nice repair TV, well done. Now that had to be precise or it wouldn’t have worked. What I am proposing will be less accurate and gaps filled with e...

@darrenking I’ve been wanting to do more stuff with routing templates and repair blocks, even where a repair isn’t needed. I was saving this idea for a later build but as the subject has come up, I’ll...

Looks great so far @cheesewhisk, have fun shaping the volute!

Looking good @cheesewhisk! 👍

Cheers @russ that seems to be the trick, keeping at it.

You're getting there @cheesewhisk. Keep at it. 👍😁 🙏🎸🎶🙂

I’m going to block it and reroute it Hi @boo, I don't think you need worry about the strength of an end grain block going in there, as you said the stress is being exerted forward of the repair. If y...

@darrenking CNC machined blocks and templates would be a tremendous time saving for repair jobs. It would also take away a lot of stress for builders knowing there is an easy fix for mistakes. Hand ma...

I should point out that the Template from Potvin didn’t come with a block of wood but the templates to make the block and the cut, sorry @darrenking Having the blocks made is actually a great idea, it...

It’s an old machine, but could probably handle a bit more work. Sending GCode data to a CNC controller is a bit like asking Marvin to open and shut doors! You could probably run your router from an M...

Any idea whether 3mm is close enough to 1/8” to be interchangeable Hi TV, it depends a little on the construction of the collet but it is more likely that a 1'8" collet could successfully take a 3mm ...

@tv101 Yes risk assessments are very familiar territory for me. At work we had workshops with vehicle maintenance, wood machining/assembly and metal work/welding. I did all the risk and related assess...

What, are you my wife too now Haha @tv101 I like ya buddy, but I don’t think of you that way...

I’ve done a similar type of job where the owner wanted to remove the tremolo bridge and fit a fixed one. I did it by creating a template to fit the tremolo cavity using thick Perspex and then used thi...

Wow! That's some investment the person has made. @tv101 You are gonna love how it’s gonna sparkle. ✨✨✨✨✨✨

@jamesbisset Yes it’s always Thursdays decided by the pub I think. They have other live stuff Fri, Sat, Sun evenings and afternoons and don’t open Mon.
