MikeD Posted March 14, 2011 Report Posted March 14, 2011 I was wondering how you guys typically go about angling a guitar top like on an Les Paul or similar. I've heard from one person who uses hand planes but that seems inefficient and not very precise. Anyone have a better idea? Thanks. Quote
DC Ross Posted March 14, 2011 Report Posted March 14, 2011 I use a jack plane. It works very well if you plan it out. Quote
Ripthorn Posted March 14, 2011 Report Posted March 14, 2011 You could also use a router with some tilted guide rails, kind of like what happens in Myka's neck pocket jig for angled neck pockets. Though when reading the title, I thought you meant putting out a lure for a guitar top to see if it would bite, which made me laugh. Quote

DC Ross Posted March 14, 2011 Report Posted March 14, 2011 Perry's idea would work well if Tremmy had a 16" jointer Quote
