spinynorman Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 I want to make the pickup cavity hole in a 3-ply pickguard bigger. What should I use to cut it, so I get a smooth, straight edge? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ou7shined Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 Drill a hole big enough to get a hacksaw blade into and just hold it in your hand. A Dremel cutting wheel is a better option (what I do). Whatever, just cut it a few mil too small and open it out with a file and sandpaper. HTH. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spinynorman Posted July 23, 2011 Author Share Posted July 23, 2011 Maybe I need a Dremel. I feel the onset of tool GAS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
