Jem7RB UK Posted February 11, 2004 Report Posted February 11, 2004 Hi guys,hope you are all well (now thats the bum smoochin outta the way) 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 Later dudes Rob Quote
KeithHowell Posted February 11, 2004 Report Posted February 11, 2004 1, Is there an easier way to make the purfling channel ? Yes, use a small router with a point edge guide. What is the best glue/type/make to used to stick the purfling to the wood 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. Keith Quote
