Starting with some boards, I cut them up, glue them together, and make a neck shaped object.

The difference between an amateur and a professional is patience. Taking the time to get the details right. Beautiful work.

How long have you been a luthier? Your build process is amazing with your specialty tools. That milling setup with the stewmac safety-plane is so perfect.

Do you remember how thick the blank at the body part was at 6:32? I’m trying my 1st build and i think i’ve just rough cut the laminated parts down to 37mm, i’m not sure if the top is 10mm later, whether i’m gonna have enough meat to work with.

Beautiful work! I was wondering. I’ve never used hide glue before, what’s the advantage it lends for the headstock joint in comparison to other glues? Thanks!

I find on light coloured woods it gives a more invisible glue line. Also when trying to line up the laminates of the neck and headstock, if I’m not happy with how they line up it’s easier to re do with hide glue. There are some disadvantages too, have to prepare the glue, pre heat the parts, and even then there is not much open time so need to be quick to get the clamps on.

I just realised why you never see cats in a wood shop. The cat only walks onto the table saw once.

Im enjoying your use of a milling machine in your guitar builds. Is it a jet? How much traverse do you get ?

The brand is Optimum, it’s got about 500mm. Wouldn’t mind a little bit more on the x though.
