  1. I'm assuming that you're doing the PVA ironing method of veneering? How will you stop the demarcation veneer glue from softening and moving when you put the top on?
  2. Purchased a pair of Bart soapbars and a 5 string bridge from M. Fair price, fair packaging and great updates throughout.

    It's about where I stand to practice, I'd notice even if she didn't. I might. It may help someone out there if I do.

    I was thinking of spraying some glue in the air and hoping that enough air molecules stick together that they would form an amorphous cloud like shape I could use. I've not sorted a body yet, I've got to finish adding a woodworking vice to my bench first and then I can do something about the body. This isn't going to be threatening Owen for the longest build, but it won't be far off. I can include the bench build as well if you want
  5. Brake cleaner works as well. We use it at work to clean PC processors and the heatsink.

    Gratuitous mock up photo.
  7. Woo hoo, another @Andyjr1515 build thread 🙂 I love this pandemic, you're all building stuff so there's lots to follow 😉
  8. I like the dot design. And the colour, is it a satin finish? What's the headstock shape? You have noticed that the D string has fallen off?
  9. It's not a plank until it's been driven round a corner between two lorries whilst the car it was on the roof of goes the other way.
  10. Prise a marker dot out and pin through that? Silly idea, it'll be over the truss rod channel. 12th fret? It's got blocks. Abort!
  11. A jig I suspect for that one.
  12. I would have no qualms adjusting a truss rod channel from the top on a mill. From the back? Not a whelk's chance in a supernova.
  13. Silly question, and probably covered by the above "last resort" option, but could the fingerboard be reattached sans truss rod and then go through the back of the neck to install a new one and fit a skunk stripe?
  14. Hurr-hurr, Volute...
  15. Why don't you bring the thing back in with you to save all this scurrying around to the shed and back?
  16. Excuse my inability to draw...
  17. Perpendicular to the strings, or along the same axis?
  18. It's very shiny, have you polished the ebony? Is there space for the swifts...
  19. Nice work, well done on taking the plunge. Nice looking jumper as well 🙂
  20. Geez, will you change your profile picture already, I keep thinking Andy's posted an update
  21. Ooo, I want to be one of those. Probably not this thread though.
  22. I bought an unused Peavey Millennium 5er neck from Leroybass. Perfect transaction from beginning to end. Trade with impunity!
  23. I'm glad I'm not going mad, but equally sorry for you too 🙂
