That is a very beautiful and elegant rosette! I really enjoy the crispness of the three accent rings against the walnut. To me, this layout honors the traditional approach used by 20thC makers while updating same with a more modern look. The result is very striking. Thank you for sharing your technique .

I'm not sure if u have heard of this place called advanced shell technology but they have zip abalone strips which eliminates the gaps u get from piercing the shell in and their abalone is beautiful

Thank you. Yes, I'm aware of them but they are rather pricy and in addition shopping in the US makes things unneccesarily expensive with the cutoms fees, so I most likely won't do that. If I were to build an expensive guitar for a customer (which as a lay person I don't do) it may be worth a try but for now I'll keep to my sources. Their material looks great, though.

It's a set of 10 bits I bought on Amazon. It just happens that one of the bits makes a channel exactly the size of my purfling. Just look for Dremmel Routing bit and you will find a similar set. www.amazon.de/Gr%C3%B6%C3%9Fen-Schaftfr%C3%A4ser-Schneidespitzen-Fr%C3%A4sstifte-Werkzeugdurchmesser/dp/B07Y3R4H4N/ref=sr_1_33_sspa?__mk_de_DE=%C3%85M%C3%85%C5%BD%C3%95%C3%91&crid=UCT866BJ9IJQ&keywords=dremel+fr%C3%A4ser+set&qid=1694319181&sprefix=dremel+fr%C3%A4ser+set%2Caps%2C101&sr=8-33-spons&sp_csd=d2lkZ2V0TmFtZT1zcF9hdGZfbmV4dA&psc=1

Hi Gabriel, that turned out beautiful! Not real labor intensive either. I am surprised you use the Dremel circle cutter jig, I tried it and it was very inaccurate - I must be doing something wrong… just wondering what thickness is your top and also the rosette thickness? Thank you for taking the time to make these videos! I will look for that glue as well, is that a plastic binding? Does that glue work well on wood binding and fiber BWB binding? I have found if I use a downcut spiral carbide bit I don’t get those fuzzies and tear out… have you used those?
@GabiM3112 Жыл бұрын
No, I'm using something like this: www.amazon.de/gp/product/B07CRF6ZJW/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 The tops are about 4mm when I make the channels for the rosette, I rout the to about between 1,5 mm 2mm, depending on what I put in. I normally sink the rosette in a bit, so that the top is a tiny bit proud of the channel and then sand things flush later. Some of the binding I use is taller than that, so I plane/sand that down to top thickness. There's no tearout with my cutting. Maybe going round in the circle slowlier might be useful and maybe taking more turns and adjust thickness with each turn may help as well. Cheers Gabi

Hi, if you see this little question I'd be thankful if you could give me a hint as to the brand or trade name of your bolt on neck hardware. I ask because I got off my wishful thinking duff and began a scratch built, except for planting the trees, Tenor Ukelele April 16th. I am close to attaching the neck and I remember your having mentioned a bolt on system you use and favor. I have used threaded inserts before and found the system I had tried to be problematic. A help here is greatly appreciated. Thanks, Mike P.S. I decided on Tenor Uke because it is my first ever stringed instrument project. I had thought it could be a little bit easier plus I can actually play one and low-g tuning is pretty similar to the guitar's sound.
@GabiM31122 жыл бұрын
Hi there, well I'm using threaded inserts as well and a bolt from the other side that normally is used for furniture building. Something like this: www.amazon.de/M%C3%B6bel-Anschluss-Schrauben-verzinkt-M6-50-St%C3%BCck/dp/B074ZR7C5K/ref=sr_1_12?__mk_de_DE=%C3%85M%C3%85%C5%BD%C3%95%C3%91&crid=2JOOKIUW4DGS9&keywords=flachkopf+m%C3%B6bel+geindeschraube+6-kant&qid=1653038813&sprefix=fla%2Caps%2C72&sr=8-12. I put in the threaded inserts (sink them), and put in a few drops of superglue before screwing them in the last bit. Only when they are in the neck heel, I make the holes for the body since it may be that I'm not completely on my line with the bolts and can adjust the holes to fit the bolts.

@Alex Glenn Gelacio You can make your own. In the end your fretslots, the scale length and your bridge position need to be all right. Everything else you can design. You could also take plans for OM guitars and shrink them by, let's say, 1/4 when copying/printing them. These for instance: guitarfingerstyle.de/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/OM_acoustic_guitar.pdf
