I’m a great fan of Osmo products and also of the Fiddes equivalents. So much better to apply that traditional Danish oil (why couldn’t they stick to producing bacon?) as they don’t become tacky anywhe...

Back and sides are lovely and smooth but the top is bumpy along the grain. @syntholabo Can you put some pictures up so we can see, I’m interested in trying this Osmo stuff. Cheers.

@darrenking Right- five applications of Osmo satin, with ultra-fine wool rubs in between. There's a mild lustre on the back and sides, and a nice oiled colour on the spruce top. Back and sides are lov...

I think I would have to say that it depends on the material the decal is made of and how it has been printed. Ideally you would make an inlaid logo from contrasting veneer as this is likely to take th...

Hey gang. I've decided to Osmo. Matt or Satin to be decided. Before I do the neck, does anyone know how a decal stands up to oiling / waxing? Is there a preferred way to get a logo on if this is not r...

@syntholabo Yup - Axminster say '0000' so we'll go with that for now...I never was very good at maths

Talking of ultra-fine steel wool... Mark- you mention 00000 grade in the videos. Did you mean 0000? That's wat i got cos thats all there iz

Thanks Darren, excellent. I have a bunch of Osmo samples, and have already used the Polyx Raw onmy lovely maple floor. I'm thinking I won't mind a bit of darkenung since this first build is pure pale ...

I've been searching for a while for advice on finishing with Osmo, because I'm petrified of spraying nitrocellulose in an inadequate environment for safety and quality's sake. I want to know how much ...

the little quality inspector sitting on my shoulder wouldn't let me just hide it under the fretboard @robin Yeah we all have one of those, mine is kept very busy!

Didn't get a lot done today due to the horizontal rain. But I did manage to knock up a headstock angle jig. Attachment : 20200922_184002.jpg I also repaired my truss rod slot ready for routing...

Prompted by @clinton's finniting post/discussion, I'm tempted to finnit this one. @tv1010101 I think it’s a fantastic looking build and I bet it sounds great too. Occasionally I revisit old builds an...

Open tuning and play slide on it......

@johnnierox-boo Hi John et al, I have now finished pricing the little fret slotting jig and can confirm the following end user prices: Main jig - £37+ VAT = £44.40 inc VAT Scale length templates - eac...

Anyway, I have modified the drawing and have run a first batch of revised slotting jigs. I am going to record an assembly video over the weekend and then they should be ready to go. I’ll post more det...

And I've only had to enter my bank details, mother's maiden name, date of birth, and CVV number on a few sites ... @tv1010101 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Sorted...👍🏻 🤣

What’s are the P90’s? A stunning looking build.

That said, I wonder if there’s a similar recommendation for the best book om making electric guitars, preferably covering solid bodies, semi-solids, and arch tops. @rdenatale You might think this cou...

I level frets with a chunk from a 1m aluminium level - the bubbles had vanished and I was going to chuck it but my straight edge showed that it was very flat so I chopped the ends off and tidied - I h...
