    I remember seeing them in some guitar making books or online or something but I guess I can't get any so I'll just get the precut ones. I like no position markers but the guy I'm making a guitar for wants them.

    I am trying to find white plastic position marker rods like these http://www.stewmac.com/shop/Bindings,_trim..._Materials.html except I need them bigger for the front of the fingerboard anyone know where I can find them. I would prefer that they are the rods I find them easier to use.

    That's what I did when a truss rod broke, now that I read this I guess I sisn't do the iron thing long enough, but after I got thetruss rod out I attached a piece of wood to the back of the neck and ran it through a planer no problems at all.

    guess not and also I just donated $10 to this site yesterday and I got access to the plans and stuff the ebay ones might be good if you don't have auto cad but there's a lot more here

    I only bought it for the plans but the pdf book is good too and it has a fret caculator pogram that will print out templates for different scale lengths and number of frets for $11.50 you get all of it. The only thing I don't like is you have to print out the plans one part at a time for the whole thing, it would be better if it was cad files but for the price I can't complain. this probably sounds like I'm trying to sell it but I just figured people building guitars on here would be interested if one of the ones there building is in there's a link http://cgi.ebay.com/Guitar-plans-Telecaste...1QQcmdZViewItem

    For my last 3 builds I have rough cut and sanded the body shape but I'm not happy with how it isn't very exact. I have ordered a strat and tele template set and am planning on making complete templates for custom guitars. It would be a lot easier to just rough cut it sticky tape the template on and rout it. The thing I'm worried about is if the router bit bites and blows out the wood. Also would it be better to do it with a hand held router or a router table both are just as easy for me?
