but that would have meant a non-essential trip to the shops for MDF so I used the template I had). @rockpile99 - if you buy enough of it, you can get it delivered for free from most builders merchant...

What material are you planning on using for the inlays Eddie?

No spoilers please TV. OK @Boo But don't worry when they all get kidnapped in episode 1, and taken to the cell. Kidnappers failed in kidnapping 101 and didn't search the dog properly, so they all e...

Watched some TV last night (I believe it used to be a popular form of entertainment). No prizes for guessing what was on.

That was a good energetic start to my aural day @Russ.

I hate to say "stewm*c", but they have nut seating files. I bought one way back when (when £1=$2). Attachment : image.png Use that carefully and the bottom of the nut slot should be flat, and ...

Oh that would be good if you could, please. We can do some kind of deal. @Boo I did a big tidy of my workshop over the last few days (for reasons that will hopefully become apparent next weekend, o...

I've got the templates @Boo, if you want to make yourself a LP-alike? If I've got some suitably sized MDF, I could make a set of copies for the body, cavities, etc. Then you'd just need a straight thi...

You're welcome @rocknroller912 As Mark is fond of saying - it's just a matter of breaking things down into simple steps and then there's usually a way of getting the job done. There are probably other...

You're really not far wrong there, Although I thought I was probably exaggerating, I've spent enough time driving around the West coast of Scotland to know that it probably wasn't a huge exaggeration...

@rocknroller912 *Before* you put the cap on (assuming that's what you're going to do), rout the cavities into the body. And the wiring channels too. Do *NOT* forget the wiring channel up to the p'up...

No worries Robin. I was pretty sure that I had some when I posted last night, but didn't want to offer it until I'd checked today. You do realise that the bit @Boo sends you will be painted in pink gl...

^^^ Ignore that, I then read the subsequent posts and seen that @Boo has stepped in.

but I haven't got any rosewood to make dust from. Ahhhh ... but I have 😉 I've got a stack of little pots with dust saved from sanding jobs on different woods, on the basis of "that'll come in...

Coincidentally, this track isn't called "Hitch Hikin'" either ...

By the way, this song is not "Hitch Hikin'", but it's called "LB Boogie". And who's it by @Marcel?? 😆

@Robin - the easiest fix for that might be to mix some sanding dust with some glue and fill it?

@tv101 reminder to look in the morning (not supposed to be online this eve!)

Jiggy Jiggy, Boo's a Ziggy. 😎 That's an incredible shine on the guitar now. It was pretty "wow" before. Now it's beyond-wow.

I felt like I was making some decent progress but it’s clear I’ve got a long way to go. It's a never-ending journey @cheesewhisk. If you set out in the expectation that you'll ever get to the end, th...
