Guitar 1001 – Sides thicknessed
October 3, 2010
I have thickness planed the sides down to .108″. I still need to get them closer to .090″ before I send them off to the side bender (me, I’m the side bender). Once they are an acceptable thickness for bending, I can start the bending, end block, neck block install, followed by kerfing.
Back and top braces still need to be cut from stock then radiussed before installing.

What if the side bender goes on a bender? I couldn’t resist. Have to say, bending the sides is one of the coolest parts of luthierie.
