I have some old frets off a knackered guitar so I’ll experiment with different glue like I should have done before doing it on my actual build 😬

@frocesterbill ok so this is something I’ve clearly missed, had no idea that you could get different viscosity super glue. I’ll know for next time!

@frocesterbill Thanks, indeed where it worked it looks fantastic it’s just the few where too much glue came out. i did some experiments after screwing...

@rocknroller912 I might need to do this as the fret board has ever so slightly snuck beneath the body. Alternatively I could just taper the very top o...

@robin thanks, I’ve made both horns a bit thinner now too so the lower one doesn’t block things, it’s a little annoying still but overall I’m not goin...

@koendb I always wear a strap with the guitar quite high so I can have the neck at a high angle so there’s no strain on my wrist. On the rare occasion...

You could almost be fooled into thing this Is going to be a guitar. I’ve got a small design flaw on my part, the lower horn, despite taking more of th...

@robin turns out that I needed very little in terms of carving for the belly and wrist carves so they’re both quite slight. In might need to carve the...

@robin thank you for that, I think that is certainly too deep for what I want as it’s mean there’d be a ridge between them that’d be too thin. I think...

So I’m a little less concerned about this now, in terms of the fretboard and the strings running parallel to the edges it lines up fairly close, the b...

@steveadams was it a tinted oil? Also have you by chance tried that oil over a coloured water based stain?

@koendb set neck, not sure how I’d go about making a shim thin enough! Anyway I should check it against the path of the strings and bridge first and c...

@koendb excellent, looking forward to hearing it once I get everything together 🙂 I dropped a Dimarzio True Tone (think that’s what it’s called) into ...

@boo I wish I’d asked you for some sound samples now, those are the same pups I chose for my build!

@bpower tidy work 🙂

@rocknroller912 could you use some tool wax on it, presuming the result would be sanded it should cause issues?
