I can live with this, as I will turn them upside down as you said, clean them up with needle files, and the troublesome side gets sanded in leveling. I think it will be OK with some care. Roger that-laser cutters can be so picky. Looking forward to seeing this take shape! 10 hours ago, gpcustomguitars said: Edited December 8, 2020 by Charlie H 72 Quoting mishaps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've put them outside the live area, but never considered in the tuning machine pilot holes. SR Yes, clever!

gpcustomguitars Posted December 13, 2020 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2020 Thanks Andy! I spent a part of the weekend routing - both wings are cut out, now they need some cleaning up of the joining surfaces and pre-cutting of a part of a binding ledge. Also, made a good start with the jazz bass project I mentioned a few days ago. Made most of the jigs needed, routed out the body, etc, I'm preparing to cut a neck from chosen stock. It will get it's own thread tomorrow or the day after. First mockups where it all actually looks like a guitar: 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
