@nsj Nice job done there Neil. 👍 🎶🙂🎸🙏

So got to my mates today and got the sycamore sawn up. His self made gadget worked a treat! Attachment : VideoCapture_20230301-155209.jpg Attachment : 20230301_155005.jpg Attach...

@russ nah, it's only small pieces of wood that put my back out, I'm fine with big bits lol

Don't bugger your back up again @nsj. 😬 🙂🎸🎶🙏

@poco7 It was not from a plan. I actually just used the radius template that I made on the course and copied the arch on the long rails. I just cobbled the rest of the jig together from scraps. As lon...

That router jig you've made...is that from a plan you've picked up somewhere, or did you just create it? Looks like you could have the inner 'sleds' set with removable sides for various radii? just s...

Well... I thunk it's time to start another build. I just had some parts come in. Not everything I need yet but most if it. Just want to let it sit in my shop for a bit before starting the project to l...

That is a nice looking guitar!

@bpower Beautiful looking guitar, superb work. 👍

That’s a great looking guitar @bpower! An awesome save as well, excellent job and glad to hear that you escaped the hurricane!

@tv101 thanks tv. Appreciate it. This guitar was a struggle but I'm happy how it came out. I am sooooo glad it was not my first build. It may have turned me off of the whole thing. well..... probably ...

I’m using three layers of knife-cut veneer and one sawn veneer for the face, all made by joining two pieces. Of the three knife-cut veneers, the second layer is perpendicular to the rest. On another b...

@jamesbisset Sure enough, the next morning revealed that the face veneer (1.5mm thick) had opened up along the glue line. I had another thought this morning, are the joints in the layers all on the...

@rocknroller912 Another takeaway from this project is that two pack urea-formaldehyde resin is nothing like Titebond or other PVA based glues. It sets overnight but it cures over days, maybe weeks. A...

@markbailey, @rocknroller912,@tv,@russ,@boo,@koendb Rather than lowering the saddle, is there any possible/practical way of raising the neck? Great question,,,i think it's at the root of the problem. ...

@poco7 Are you thinking maybe removing the fretboard and building up the neck? like a taper? From your descriptions, my first thought was to remove the fretboard board and raise it up. I hadn't con...

@poco7 I’d love to help you out if at all possible but I have no experience with resonators or slide guitars yet. I’m also a visual learner so I must be able to see what the problem is, I don’t really...

@robin Are you thinking maybe removing the fretboard and building up the neck? like a taper?

@tv101 maybe the string bar idea...not sure about the matal working idea...hmmmn, have to ponder this...Robin suggested...see note....a rise of the neck,,,mabe under the fretboard?...thinking....than...

@robin good thought, hmmmmn...maybe....have to ponder that for awhile...thanks <><
