Using Router Jig to Cut Back Channels

Today, I share my experience of using an electric router to cut binding channels for an armrest, which demands precision, accuracy, and a steady hand-something I struggle with due to a tremor in my hands. This video delves into the challenges and dangers associated with this critical step in guitar building.
Using a router to make binding channels and channels for purflings requires meticulous attention to detail. The depth must be correct, the width must be accurate, and maintaining a steady hand is crucial. As I worked on this task, I realized my fingers were a little too close for comfort. Despite these challenges, building an acoustic guitar remains an enjoyable and rewarding experience.
In this episode, you'll learn:
Techniques for managing hand tremors while woodworking,
Safety precautions when using power tools,
Tips for achieving accurate depth and width in binding channels, and
The joy and fulfillment of overcoming obstacles in guitar-building.
Join me as I navigate these challenges and share valuable insights on how to build a guitar safely and effectively. Your support means the world to me, and I'm excited to share this journey with you.
