    *steps back* I can see a dropkick coming from a mod here. Cactiscurtis- you might want to edit that post out. This is not the method nor the place to call somthing out. If you got a beef, take it up with perry in pm.

    When you plane a piece of figured lumber wet the surface with a damp sponge and let it soak for a minute. (like you would to raise the grain before sanding) then run it through the planer while still damp. Wet and let soak for every pass. It GREATLY reduces tearout to the point where it is almost non-existant.

    Sorry I feel bad, I didn't mean to stomp all over the idea. Its just once it was built it would be hard to tell it was done like that anyway. So just dosn't add much to the guitar.

    K. This is just a silly idea. It is possible with a long endmill on a manual mill or CNC. But why? Thats like drinking out of a cup backwards. There is no distinct advantage to doing it that way. Less talk, more build! (silly thread in general)

    Hmm....a custom tailpiece might look cool on that sentinel. I ordered that powdercoat gun on sat. I got flat black and gloss black. Now I need a stove......it'll be yard sales this weekend .... a cheap stove is harder to find than you think.

    Bad idea Get some white decal transfer paper. You can find it at hobby shops and ebay.

    I'd rather have a cheaper tool than no tool. If it breaks replace it with a better one.

    That would make a cool panning effect if you switched while playing.

    Up until recently I was using a milling vise on a drill press with a router bit chucked in it. (this is hard on the bearings of your drill press by the way) This way you can get the straight lines without too much messing with files. Otherwise rough the shape close and clean it up with a file.

    Looks like the one Jewel plays in the "you were meant for me" Video....Don't know the brand but you may be able to see it in the video.

    My old man used vegatable oil on an oak spatula he made, letting it soak in betweek coats. Still got the spatula.....not much oil left on it though. IT looked pretty when it was first done. Edit: I would NOT use this oil idea on a guitar. Tru-oil is not that expensive.

    They ship within the US as well.....for those who may not have bothered to click the link. Furthermore they have various viscosities. From water to thick gel. They also have a remover....for those (like me) who have glued body parts by accident. And also, they have an accelerator which instantly cures it. This has a down side of making the bond brittle and leaving a white residue that needs to be cleaned off. Most hardware stores dont carry that selection

    As far as the relationsip. The higher the pressure the lower the CFM. This makes sense because the compresser has to push more air in to get that pressure. This is why I think you wil be fine with the one you mentioned. 8.6 @ 40psi will be greater then 8.6 CFM at 10 psi. How much greater I dont know. But I personally don't think you would have an issue. (but i say again this is an inference) I would say go as big as you can comfortably afford. A little overkill never hurt anyone. This is the one I got. Its a tad tempermental but its a cheapo so what can you expect. Pretty much the equivalent of your harbour freight brand. Mine

    If you're looking for CA check Leevalley They ship within Canada too

    Sounds like a shoe in. I have a small carry around one that makes 5.29 CFM at 90psi. Its good we used it to run the air nailer while roofing my uncle's place. Kept up to that running at about 85psi. You running the gun at 10psi...cant see a problem. (but this is just an inference) I have run an airbrush off it but thats hardly a comparison. I paint using the big one...18.5 CFM ........*Tim Allen grunt*
  18. GuitarGuy
    Keep in mind what you're going to run off of the compressor. If you plan on using air tools as well, you will want high CFM. Pressure, and horsepower for that matter, does not mean a whole lot if you are using air tools. If its just painting then you can get away with a smaller compressor than that at a cheaper cost.

    Oh that guy invented templates.... LMAO. I say buy em from someone else. Big D has some usually. (not to start another ronkirn bashing thing but anyone read this line. "Years ago while working on a 1954 Telecaster I created the masters for these templates by using a pin router and using the original body as the master, thus these are duplicates of that original Tele." that just kills any scap of credibility that guy had)

    I got nothin....LGM?

    Make sure the hole in the top of the lid of the siphon feed jar is free and clear. If it isnt it can't get the material out. Kinda like pouring pop too fast it just "glugs". Or just try using the cup and see if it makes a difference (if you have one with it)
  22. GuitarGuy
    Low on costs hardware is gonna cost you a lot more than a decent plan. There is one on my website for autocad, its basic but its free. Donate to this website and it has plans for cad as well.

    Read everything on the main site. The be all and end all is scale length. It dictates everything about the guitar. Draw a complete plan to scale before starting.
