MrMuckle Posted June 1, 2011 Report Posted June 1, 2011 I'd like to make a 4-ply wooden pickguard - .060 wood on top with BWB fiber veneer(.010 each layer) underneath. I've read that some of you glue the wood to plastic to keep it from warping, but I was wondering if gluing this all up with epoxy would help the fiber veneer, though much weaker than plastic, stay flat and rigid. Any thoughts on this? Quote
SwedishLuthier Posted June 5, 2011 Report Posted June 5, 2011 Why the fibre veneer? If you are conserned about the rigidity, use a plastic backing. Or do some test... Quote
MrMuckle Posted June 5, 2011 Author Report Posted June 5, 2011 Me hates plastic. Guess I will be the guinea pig...... Quote
SwedishLuthier Posted June 7, 2011 Report Posted June 7, 2011 Fair enough. Then I think cross laminated wood might be a better and more stable alternative. Quote
