@tej Are you thinking of raising the whole neck with a flat shim or changing the neck angle with an angle shim. If it’s a flat shim then you could add it to the pocket and route to the depth you need,...

Hi, I’ve a Tele copy where the action is too high, if I lay a straight edge over the frets to the bridge the angle is too low. Any tips on how to make an accurate shim to fix this please?

@boo I’m planning a 3 colour sunburst body sometime probably after the winter unless I can find a good way of heating my garage up to temperature, so I might need to pick your brains. I have yellow an...

Couple more coats and it’s looking much better. I’ll let it settle for a couple of days and sand it, again. Then I’ll check to see if it needs even more primer. Attachment : 23061B53-EF88-4486-AA...

Okay, I ditched the “amateur” rattle cans (nearly) @robin 😂 I did use more of the isolator (rattle can), let it dry and sanded it back, ready to take some nitro primer. Attachment : 7C07B...

Posted by: @robin @boo Is that you using an aerosol can, just like us amateurs do. 🤣 🤣 🤣

@tej you could try the pound shops or B&M think they sell it. £7 a roll in my local diy shop.

I’ve been away for a couple of days but got back today and sanded this back, again. It’s ready for some more primer paint, again. Maybe tomorrow. 😉 Attachment : 964CD3BB-AD52-443A-B5B0-7B4...

Posted by: @rocknroller912 Interesting point you made about paint being too wet and causing problems. Could this happened with a spray can if it’s not been shaken enough and the solvent/paint mix is ...

@boo FRYUP**Bacon and eggs with your fryup sir? Thats a bit of a setback, I'm sorry to see that. It happened to me on my first build, lacquering over my waterslide decals, "fry up" is the perfect de...

@boo Is that you using an aerosol can, just like us amateurs do.

Here’s one for ya! I put some isolator paint over this repair as I thought I would try some different primer and could get a paint reaction. Quite a horrible mustard colour isn’t it? Attachment :...
