How to make the right angles on the rosette tiles on a classical or flamenco guitar.

When assembling the rosette, the center motif tiles must have the right tapers so that they will fit properly around the rosette.
If you would like to learn these techniques in person you can join one of my guitar making courses. All the info is on: guitarmakingcourse.org
Alternately if you want to build your own guitar in your own workshop at home you can do it with my course on video format that you can find on: onlineguitarmakingcourse.com

Thank you Pablo for sharing this. I love your teaching method, so articulate and comprehensive. Please keep on educating us 😊

Thank you Pablo, I learn so much from your video's. Greetings from The Haque in Holland.

It's always amazing to see the amount of planning, work and attention to detail it takes to make a fine rosette.

[@johngunn7087]

As always, Pablo, the explanation of your technique is crystal clear. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience !!

[@bradhart1972]

So glad to have another video from you!

[@dassouki]

Great video as usual. Thanks for sharing your knowledge!

[@redkitekk]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@astakic]

Great video and very important information was provided. A good reminder when the time comes again to build a rosetta. Thank you Pablo once again.

As always, a beautifully explained process and a real pleasure to watch!

[@rjlchristie]

I thought that your earlier upload on this process was already perfectly clear and straight forward to follow.

[@adrienami8958]

Thanks a lot for sharing!

[@gimbo00069]

thanks pablo, you explain very clearly, there are subtitles in Italian in your online course, thank you very much

[@redkitekk]

No, sorry, the on line course has no subtitles.

Thank you pablo!

Obrigado por compartilhar suas técnicas. A solução para obtenção da curvatura nos "ladrilhos" da roseta por lixamento das laterais para chegar no ângulo correto é incrível e muito simples de ser feito. De sobra, ainda nos deu uma aula de geometria plana.

Thank you! This is a great reference.

Thank you for sharing this Pablo! Great as usual. The only thing is not clear already in my mind(I don’t know maybe for me it’s more complicated than it actually is 😅) , is about the main design of the tile… Doing that arch cut(sand)on both sides angles, does it will not affect the design itself ? I mean, do I need make an extra 0,5mm columns to like “compensate “ That or it’s not necessary? If I still didn’t get it sorry, but theoretically is just easier than practicing and seeing it itself. I’m just trying to imagine how can I keep all the central design of the motive taking the boarders out. 😕

[@redkitekk]

It depends on the design of the rosette that you are making. As you say, sometimes it is necessary to ad another section to allow for the ammount lost making the angles.

[@guaragnaluthier]

@@redkitekk right, I got it! Thanks again and for the answer. Last ask, do your students make their own rosettes during your course time?? Because it is a lot of time consuming work. How long does it take? I’d love to get an only rosette course but as I know there is none available online.

[@redkitekk]

Yes, they build their own rosettes during the course. If you want a course just on rosettes contact me on my website and we can discuss it.

[@marioamayaflamenco]

Aaah, you mean correct angles. Right angles are 90 degrees.
