Hi Eric, Greg Emery here, I met you at the Woodstock Luthier show. As I told you then, your videos have helped me soooo much! My favorite guitar is one made by watching many hours of your videos over and over again and again. Thanks for all you do, you are greatly appreciated..

It is always interesting to me on how luthiers solve making instrument components streamlined, accurate, and repeatable. From CNC, jigs, and various hand methods, all are interesting in their evolution. There was a video posted this past week from the Ratliff Mandolins channel showing the machine he created to cut out fret slots all in one pass. Personally I would rather go down the CNC route than the rather old school approach he took, still it is fascinating.

Does the shooting board guide the plane to keep the cut straight?

Hi Eric, good vid, would you say that a dedicated “mini crosscut sled” would be better to use for cutting the slots?

Hi Eric. Great video. What else do you use your planer for? I am considering whether it is worth getting one? Do you use it for planing backs, sides, tops?

@@EricSchaeferGuitars Many thanks. Yes you answered it. I need a better solution for thicknessing backs and sides. I think a drum sander is the way to go.

I appreciate the video. However, for about $20-30 you can have a decent fretboard already cut from a supplier. It seems worth it to buy them (unless you have a custom scale or some other need).
