"Also- Free shipping to any US military base (Iraq, Afghanistan, Korea, Venezuela, Selfridge Air force Base, etc) upon the following conditions: The person receiving the router table send clear pictures/video back of the table being destroyed by superior force, i.e. tank shelling, hellfire missile attack, shooting sheet with an anti-aircraft gun, or some sort of awesome display of military power, or even a pic of their whole company dancing around a bonfire which contains the router table. Three Cheers to the US Military / Coast / National Guard! I'll drink to that." lord help me I cant breathe I'm laughing so hard

ok I was messin around with a PRS at guitar center...noticed there wasnt a toggle switch got confused started turning knobs....one was...ratchet like which makes me think that its a toggle switch hidden in a knob I tried it on 4 or 5 others to make sure it was a very busted pot lol but I couldnt plug one in cause I was in something of a hurry anyways I was wondering if it really is the PRS toggle switch I(knob...whatever) and if so how do they do that.

I'm looking for some blue inlay material I dunno if it needs o be mop or abalone or what just lookin for some decent ideas wasnt too impressed by anything on the supplies page.

Tracer lathe is what your lookin for for the lathe term and it sounds to me like your talkin about a smaller version of a duplicarver
-
(cough, hack) LATHE (cough cough cough) I dunno making clay molds....doesnt sound like fun when I can knock out a metal one in 10 minutes flat even if you came up with a design I machine shop would probably knock you one out for nothing just an idea you didnt really specify what the knobs needed to look like my .02

I cut my body on a scroll saw no problem...granted it was a $2800 hegner and my body was a piece of 1" mahogany and a piece of 1" maple but either way it cut it no problem and I cut templates on it I think for my neck I'm gonna be usin a bandsaw it all honesty though.

-

-
no clue what your gluing up but if its a blank for something i just kick it through a planer or a thickness sander depending on which neighbors home lol, and I think titebond 2 is waterproof but I know that original titebond if water soluble its worth a try at least but hell I've only ever used original titebond so just ignore me lol .
-
similar he uses it for top carving and its a plane with a wooden handle stickin out the back those look like they might do it though.

Alright I work for a rental company and the guy sold me a wagner cap spray cs9000 hvlp compressor and a wagner suction feed gun along with a little orange can thats a mini compressor too anyways I got it all for 50 bucks and it shoots better than a rattle can so whatever lol on to the questions.. 1. does anyone have any information on the wagner compressor? 2. how the heck do you clean the gun right now I'm just shootin thinner through it cause I figure its better than nothin 3. is there anyway to identify what the gun is 4. what would you recommend for a good gravity feed gun thanks guys I know #4 has been answered by LGM in one of his very cool tutorials but I figure more opinions are good

-
a local luthier actually did that he routed to cavities in the back of his guitar they were grain matched and flush plus they were held in by magnents so it didnt look like there was any cavities and in one of them he put a wireless unit very cool guitar.
-
ok you get your picture of your guitar up then press the "print screen" button on the keyboard then go into paint, illustrator, photoshop, whatever and paste it in then you have to trim it down and save it. that thing is made if flash so theres no native way to actually save.
-

-

its for sure leopard wood but some dude told me that snakewood and lacewood are the same thing I was dumb enough apparently to believe him anyways yes it is leopard wood its real heavy looks like a leopard lol and I'm stoked to make a neck out of it now just need to figure out what I wanna use for the middle piece.
-

-
