Super Sonic Guitar Build - Part 2
Creating templates and learning how to use the router table.
Broke down and bought a neck template |
Cut the body template and sizing it up on the body blank |
Shot of the three piece ash body blank |
Duplicating the template |
I was having a hard time getting micro adjustments out of my spring loaded router. I grabbed my car jack and it works great! |
Duplicating the duplicate on to 1/2 mdf |
This should be easier to run on the router |
Sloppy rough cut with my hand held jigsaw. I should have spent more time getting it closer to the line. |
Tape and super glue makes double sided tape substitute |
Some pretty big chipout. I should have watched more videos. |
Laying out the neck blank |
routing the truss rod |
Close up shot |
Used some wood filler in the chip out areas. I think it came out great for my first try. |
Rough cutting the neck. Getting as close as I can to the line. |
All cout out |
I didn't get a shot where I filed and sanded closer to the line. This is right after cutout. |
Routed out great! Again, not bad for a beginner. |
Rounded over the body with a 7/16 round over bit |
Looking more like a guitar body |
