krizalid Posted December 24, 2003 Author Report Share Posted December 24, 2003 hai, i got a confusing question (for me) to ask you guys. i'm printing the blueprint for ibanez radius and all i got is a single page of the plan with condensed print. why? i tried the corel draw plan using corel draw, but it seems to failed me. i'm using autocad 2000, still i got aone page plan. can you sort this thing out?

krizalid Posted December 24, 2003 Author Report Share Posted December 24, 2003 just a short question since i don't get any reply after my last post before the recnt one. can i make the body out of plywood? stack them together to have, say, 2" or more, bookmatched them to prevent warping ( if there's any), then have it sanded down to the right thickness and then route all the necessary place to put the hardware and have a natural finish (solid colour perhaps?)

Drak Posted December 24, 2003 Report Share Posted December 24, 2003 You can't thickness-sand plywood down. Once you go past the top veneer, it's all junk filler wood. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DannoG Posted December 24, 2003 Report Share Posted December 24, 2003 Drak is being gentle here, plywood is really not a good option. Almost any solid wood will sound much better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westhemann Posted December 24, 2003 Report Share Posted December 24, 2003 and solid wood will hold screws and studs better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krizalid Posted December 29, 2003 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2003 you mean, plywood has no what so ever strength in holding the screws? i've seen some that has some screws in it and it has to be pulled away with such strength. i really don't understand this...

westhemann Posted December 29, 2003 Report Share Posted December 29, 2003 i just said it will not hold screws or studs as well as solid wood.on a trem you have alot of side pressure on the bridge studs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
