until I took advice from @darrenking who advised it should be a turned edge like a hand held scraper and not sharpened like an ordinary plane blade. I I don't even know how to sharpen an ordinary pla...

all brass construction Don't under sell it @Rocknroller912, it's made of bronze! Cheers Darren

@koendb This is a photo of the scraper plane I use. It’s an expensive model as I chose an all brass construction to avoid rust problems due to not having any heating in my work area.I struggled with g...

Planing by hand is tricky as one deep tear out can ruin a piece. I mostly use a scraper plane for thicknessing which takes longer but doesn’t tear. @rocknroller912 Thanks for sharing your experience!...

@koendb I hope your build goes well. Planing by hand is tricky as one deep tear out can ruin a piece. I mostly use a scraper plane for thicknessing which takes longer but doesn’t tear.

Wait.. What.. I thought I was supposed to build a guitar. 🤔 😋 @koendb I could really confuse you by saying “You are now cooking with gas” 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Now you are cooking. Wait.. What.. I thought I was supposed to build a guitar. 🤔 😋

Received these today ! Thanks Carol and Mark. Now it cant go wrong @koendb Now you are cooking. Good luck. 👍

@koendb, good luck with the build - but you dont need it with the Guitar Making apron in your possession 😋 . Building an acoustic is something I would love to do - I feel that i'll need to ...

Don’t over think it Boo, it took me 40 years to start building my first acoustic, once I did it took about 3 months to have it strung and playable. Anything you need I may be able to help you with. Ti...

Go @koendb 222 jesus wept, I thought 75 was a lot. Good luck man, this is definitely one to watch. As much as I'd love to build an acoustic, I'm with @boo on the 'too many electric builds planned'

carpe diem and all that! Amen to that

I know that I have had an absolute blast making the two acoustic guitars I have completed. I'm on the other fence saying maybe someday I'll make an electric guitar.... maybe. I can see me making a bas...

I’m only kidding about maybe building an acoustic, I will someday as I think it would be fun. Watching the acoustic course is also pretty inspiring as well. I did actually build one already from a Ste...

I am starting to collect all my material, tools etc.. to prepare for my first acoustic build. @koendb Good for you sir. Every so often, one more of you makes the jump and commits to building an acou...

I'll just watch it once, start all over when I am done Sounds like a good plan @koendb 👍

How far along are you? I’m on lesson 72 out of 222! Im at 54 at the moment 🙂Also just watching for now, taking notes(both mentally and real). See what tools, jigs and templates I still need to get or...

Wow, look at you go @koendb! Best of luck but, you’ve got this. Incidentally I’m currently watching the acoustic course as well, just for fun though. Maybe I’ll build one someday, maybe… How far along...
