Skelf Guitar Build

fab looking neck! how did you make the ACG inlay? I was considering making a circular inlay on my bass' headstock but decided making the perfectly round rout and inlay was nigh impossible so I'd like to know how you did this one.

The logo disk is made up on a CNC by Roger at THG.

The route for the disk is done with a fostner drill bit.

This cuts a flat hole which lets the disk sit in nicely then a drop of dark titebond.

Very nice looking guitar! I love that shape. It's similar to the one I'm making now. I'm patterning mine after this Zachary guitar:

I hope mine turns out as beautiful as yours; at least half as good looking.

Great job!

I think you qualify as mastering the art of making designer sawdust.

cheers
