If you turn the camera or phone 90 degrees then the picture will show up full screen in YouTube. |

Looking forward to seeing the plate shaping process. I have collected most of the bits for an archtop, but have been reluctant to jump in. B |

If you are just doing it for fun, no problem. If you are hoping to get enough views to get a little bit of money out of the series, I would suggest reshooting them. Ditto if it is intended as marketing for new commissions. The vertical format will make most viewers dismiss the series offhand. |

I have no interest in getting any money-you can tell by the fact that I have built guitars for 45 years..... I am also not doing it to attract commissions... I shot those 2 myself- there are others that a friend of mine took that are better I don't do it for fun (it's not) to me this stuff is a serious as a heart attack! I do it just so other people can see how I do it and spread my knowledge/techniques- sort of like the way people post things on this forum. |

That band saw is amazing! I can't believe that it cut that fast. My cheap 10" Jet has a hard time even cutting ribs! For violins! |

Hey Brad, I love old iron, what is the piece behind your BS? Guessing a jointer, but a pic would be sweet. Thanks, B |

Nice! Looks like you have some outfeed constraints during inclement weather. Is there oil drippers for the bearings? |

Exactly.... anything guitar related (under 3 feet) works with the garage door closed anything longer an I have to open the door. I can get a perfect glue joint on a piece 8 feet long... It has a 7' bed. No oil drippers, just ports that occasionally need a few drops of all. I keep a little piece of felt in them to keep out the dust. |

I have been roughing in with a pin router or router sled for the ledges and a die grinder and flap sander for rough contours. I am anxious to see you use that Lancelot! What a mess! Tried various ideas for the pin router and die grinder but none really optimal. I did it outdoors when possible. Ever figure out any form of dust collection that actually works Brad? I am liking laminate plates more and more lately. |
