@boo I think the only way to fix the problem is to peg the bridge holes and re drill in the correct place Yes, I fully expect to be plugging ...

@swepri I think it would get worse with thicker strings, needing longer free length. Maybe a bridge with a little more adjustment range could fix...

I'm not very happy with the intonation on this build, I should have angled the bridge a bit more. The A string is still a bit sharp with the bridge ad...

@brie A good start, my favourite headstock style.

@jamesbisset On another build, I’d be tempted to try the two internal layers at 30°-45° and 315°-330°. But I haven’t really thought through the i...

@jamesbisset Sure enough, the next morning revealed that the face veneer (1.5mm thick) had opened up along the glue line. I had another thoug...

@poco7 Are you thinking maybe removing the fretboard and building up the neck? like a taper? From your descriptions, my first thought was to ...

@poco7 I'm at a loss here for ideas..if i sand and lower the saddle, i'll have NO break angle to the tail piece and fighting buzzing on the cover...

@jamesbisset So, the back went into the vacuum press, this time glued with a slow cure urea resin, and you heard me say on the video there were a...

@rocknroller912 My main concern would be the inside drying out causing cracking. For electric I don’t think sealing the inside will affect the so...

@poco7 Good to hear that your surgery was successful and I hope you heal quickly.

@poco7 that actually looks amazing, that's going to have to be included on my 'to do' list..i'll bet it plays as well as it looks. Thanks, a...

@koendb Last week I finished the carving of the rosette, That is absolutely stunning, you must have tremendous patience and steady hands.

@nsj A lovely piece of carving.

Anyway, I’ve highjacked this post/topic too much so I’ll shut up about it now. No worries @boo , we all need a wee bit of light entertainment.

@swepri One can find an example on my very first build, where something moved during the glueup of the neck. 😊 I just made a rectangular recess a...

@jamesbisset So, just for you, here’s some video of a vacuum pump. That looks like it might be successful this time, fingers crossed.

@nsj Not sure on the bridge, being a hollow body means less to work with I'd imagine. Maybe if the recess was a particular shape or that, or mayb...

@boo I’ve got four huge whisky barrels here that I don’t know what to do with yet but I was obviously considering attempting a guitar build of so...
