Hi guys,hope you are all well (now thats the bum smoochin outta the way) :D

I've got some Purfling for my rg7 custom,which i have started to use a knife to cut away the veneer to make a channel for the purfling,My questions are as follows

1, Is there an easier way to make the purfling channel ?

2, What is the best glue/type/make to used to stick the purfling to the wood

For any interested parties,my rg7 came up against a problem,the glue i originally used was old and well,it did'nt stick very well, But i managed to lift the veneer and re-glue it without to much trouble ... Score one for me :DB)

Later dudes

Yes, use a small router with a point edge guide.

This depends on what the purfling is made of. I have used cyano successfully to glue plastic purfling and bindings. It would also work for wood of course. Try some on a scrap piece. I find dampening the wood slightly first works well with cyano.
