Houdini Posted February 17, 2005 Report Share Posted February 17, 2005 I was thinking about making a fingerboard radius jig for my router. If I do this, I am concerned if it will be able to give a clean cut on Mother of Pearl. As always, I will inlay the fingerboard before I radius it, in order to give it a smooth finish. Just wondering if you can use a router on MOP, or if it will break. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devon Headen Posted February 17, 2005 Report Share Posted February 17, 2005 It will break. I've talked to a couple've well known luthiers that use routing jigs to radius their fretboards, and they told me to always inlay after radiusing.
