Posted by: @russ Hope to keep you posted on how it goes....wish me luck. Good Luck, but more important: Have Fun!

Well Peeps, Still haven't managed to get the humidity and temperature in the shed under control so I decided to sign up for a college course where we're going to build a small acoustic guitar over the...

Posted by: @russ Hello Peeps, It's been a long slow journey with many hurdles to get over........one of them being no space to build in. I've been on this Forum for over a year now..... still no guit...

@russ I don't cover my bandsaw, but as @Rocknroller912 says a plastic bag over it has got to help. I use mine more often than I ever imagined that I would, if I had it covered up I'd probably not use ...

@russ If it’s a table top size bandsaw you could try a vacuum bag to suck all the air out if you have a tube vacuum like a Henry. If not the a large plastic bag over the top with some silica gel insid...

Thanks @robin. I've now got some plastic boxes with lids so hopefully the tools will be fine. I probably will keep the wood in the house over the winter......if I can find a space for it. I have worri...

@russ I'm glad to report that my shed is still there this morning after last night's storm. Yesterday morning the shed was 4°C and 80% humidity, I take the wood that I'm currently working on indoors ...

Well guys I've got the vent on the shed but I still have 72% humidity in there. I've stored all my jigs and guitar wood in there but I'm worried it's all going to warp. Should I take it back out and k...

Posted by: @tv101 Congrats on the shed Russ. Thanks @tv101. I'm going to try and keep it from clogging up but the desire to buy the next tool is always there..... especially if it's going to make th...

@mattbeels Thanks I will try this firm and see what it has.

I have the SM nut spacing rule @rocknroller912 and I wouldn’t slot a nut without it. It’s a bit fiddly but it works well and it covers every spacing for nuts and bridges that you would ever use, indis...

@koendb Carved solid top is actually easier than an acoustic flat top because there’s no radius dish or thickness sanding involved. The gluing surface between the front/back and ribs is flat, which ca...

Posted by: @rocknroller912 Do you mean an arch top carved from solid wood or a semi acoustic from laminates. Solid wood carving is more like a violin type of instrument which is my particular interes...

@Koen Do you mean an arch top carved from solid wood or a semi acoustic from laminates. Solid wood carving is more like a violin type of instrument which is my particular interest. If that’s what you ...

I haven't looked any further back if it this was already proposed, but an archtop guitar build would be awesome or would that be way too advanced for us mere mortals?

Posted by: @tv101 I'd be happy just to see *anything* - quite miss the Saturday sessions in the workshop. @tv101 Yeah I’m the same, I really miss it. What I do instead at 1pm every Saturday is cry f...

I use this dirt cheap 'fritz Ruler' as a string spacing ruler.. I cant even remember how I got it. (It probably came in a cheap Ali kit ) Attachment : IMG_20211113_172511703-COLLAGE.jpg
