One last question and I'll stop buggin you guys. I do appreciate all the tips and help I have recieved from this forum. Thank you.
How on earth does one route the binding Chanel around the body when there is a neck (Spanish heel) already glued in the way?
What do you guys do? Do the small stretch with an exacto knife and hope nothing gets massacred?
Things I have learned along the way so far:
It helps to first be an expert of sorts in Jig Making.
I don't like working with Oak for a neck. It's cheaper than Maple but Maple is nicer.
There is no such thing as a straight board. Only twisted , bowed and cupped or partially missing.
The guy at the scrap yard where I got my pipe for my Heating rod wood bender is greedy and I'm sure he pocketed the ten bucks for the rusty chunk of pipe.
Wood changes dimensions after it is measured!
Pencils vanish. Forever! in a flash.
It's difficult to make a straight jig when every thing you own is crooked.
Sand paper must be crooked also!
Saws don't cut on lines.
But! I wouldn't trade any of it away.
Have a great day.
