You generally need a straight edge before you can create a straight edge Cheers @tv101. I'm going to give it another go. 🎶🙂🎸🙏

My favourite song today is one I sang a few years ago at the non-virtual Acoustic Bliss at The Twa Dugs.

Damn! I’ve been found out! And backatcha - I look forward every week to seeing what you and Mabbot are up to.

i think this was discussed on one of the live streams and Mark suggested using car body filler which works very well, sticks ok and is easy to sand Cheers @rocknroller912. I might try and give it a g...

Does anyone allow any extra on the template to allow for sanding @jonhodgson. Hi Jonathan, I used the measurements that Mark suggest. Just wish I had his skills to make it too. 🎸🙂&#x...

@frocesterbill. Thanks Bill. That's how I tried to do it but I guess I'll just have to get better at planing and sanding. 🙏🎶🙂🎸

I’ve ended up using the straight edge of something as a router guide and routed the straight edges of the template. Cheers @boo. Sounds like a good idea. 🙏🎶🙂🎸

Does anyone allow any extra on the template to allow for sanding? I wonder how much shaping and finish sanding will take off, but with a neck even a millimetre can make a difference (it's a regret of ...

When I cut mine I one edge was the edge of the sheet of MDF so it was flat - the other I got as flat as I could when I cut it and then I sanded it on a long strip of sticky sand paper - mine is about ...

Hello Peeps, I've made myself a Neck Taper Template but I'm not particularly happy with it. I made it from an offcut of MDF so it's only 600mm long. One side is the flat edge of the board but the othe...

are you sure you wouldn't prefer to stain it blue? @jonhodgson 🤣🤣🤣🤣💙

Got some spare (blue) stain??? Not so much, I've only enough powder to make a gallon or so of stain according to the package.

Mark’s Mirka is electrically powered - he used to use air power but he has one of the older Mirkas with an external power supply - see him sanding Roland’s guitar. My Mirka hasn’t done much work and i...

Obvs, when it comes to re-painting it, I'm going to talk to @Boo, and try out some metallic paint colours ... @tv101 are you sure you wouldn't prefer to stain it blue?

Hi Boo, Thanks for the glowing review and for taking the time to post the video. It was really great and I'm pleased that you found the jig easy to use and robust enough for the job. I like the occasi...

@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 ...

Never used a router before starting my first build (so no idea how it compares to others) but this Erbauer has been pretty good value for money so far. The only niggle I've come across is that the pl...

I have several routers but the one I use most is my (second hand) Dewalt DW621 - same model Mark uses - that claims to be 2hp so 1875 Watts - so somewhere between - I have my extended base on a cheapl...
