Set #1 Preparing boards for the bodies

Postby EFElliott » Sat Jan 31, 2009 8:29 pm

Next after I get the 8, 20" billets cut, I run the edges on the jointer, getting them ready
for glue-up.

Then I search a round the shop to find my clamps and get them lined up.

There's a lot of good glues on the market, I still use my old stand-by Original Titebond.

Well, here we go, the first of many constuction photos, I'm cutting the larger
Basswood boards into 20" billets.

Well, that's the first one glued-up, 3 more to go tonight, tomorrow I'll pull the clamps off
and mark the profiles.
