bassplr19 Posted December 13, 2015 Report Share Posted December 13, 2015 Started my strat build, I promise to be very slow going! Laying it out: Roughing it out: Do I really need to plane it before I route any cavities? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prostheta Posted December 13, 2015 Report Share Posted December 13, 2015 You should do really, yes. The most fundamental part of any build is establishing your working planes and reference points. I mean, you could probably get away with it but the results will always be unpredictable from case to case. If you're comfortable and experienced enough to break a rule for whatever reason, then go for it. Thing is, planing after cutting cavities could leave the planer blowing out wood around their perimeters. That's my primary concern beyond whether you can cut them reliably now, which you probably could....for whatever reason. Slow builds are generally the most controlled. No problem there.

ScottR Posted December 13, 2015 Report Share Posted December 13, 2015 Is it an optical illusion or that going to be a very short, wide strat? SR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first part was definitely on my mind, thought I could easily compensate for. This ^^^ second part I wasn't thinking about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norris Posted December 14, 2015 Report Share Posted December 14, 2015 (edited) I can't see any images. Inspecting the page I can see they are PG-hosted. @Prostheta?

Prostheta Posted December 14, 2015 Report Share Posted December 14, 2015 Gah. I've been working on setting up the server so it creates a locally-cached version of remotely-hosted images. Not sure why it just gipped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prostheta Posted December 14, 2015 Report Share Posted December 14, 2015 @bassplr19 - sorry, the images seem to have had their URLs malformed. The perils of our cache it seems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prostheta Posted December 14, 2015 Report Share Posted December 14, 2015 I think we're just having "one of those weeks". I noted that the images are in the correct proportions in your album. I'm wondering whether there is some caching issue with Google Images or whether it's our software. I'm looking into it, so thanks for exposing this loophole in our caching :-) I'd rather have it be working 100% whilst we're quiet instead of it throwing its toys out of the pram when we're not so quiet....!
