@tej My rule of thumb: whatever screws you want to use for whatever purpose, use your callipers to measure the “outside thread” width. If, for argumen...

Some more fancy back masking and it’s now ready for primer, again!

@tv101 Somehow I forgot to comment on this. Wow! This is so cool T, nice job mate. Yeah I wouldn’t mind one of them and yes I can paint them up for...

I sanded it back today and some spots needed some more filler, just a very thin skim. When this is dry I’ll sand it flat and then mask up for more pri...

@tej It would probably sink anyway, however I applied it. It’s good that this happens because it shows that things are not quite right and more attent...

@wolframmalukker Yeah that sounds good to me. Even if the Explorer shape doesn’t quite fit, you can always use an off cut to glue on where needed. Hav...

@tej Crystalac Brite Tone I think you are looking for. I have still yet to try it also.

@wayne_f Did you clean the slots out thoroughly? Did you measure the depth of the fret slots to check whether they were deep enough for the fret ta...

@tej Great job man. Feels good doesn’t it? Glad you enjoyed it. What you got planned next? You know you want to. 😉👍🎸

@whyte @tej Yep, that’s exactly what I did. (No joke) 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸

@poco7 Well it looks like you are having fun and that pleases me. Just remember to take you time and enjoy it. It’s not a race and you will have a gre...

More coats applied and I’ve got sinkage and cracking so more repairs needed. I’ll let it fully dry before sanding back before applying more filler. Th...

@koendb I could really confuse you by saying “You are now cooking with gas” 🤣🤣🤣🤣

First coat of high build primer.
