is another mans binding machine

thats very, very cool! thanks for sharing!

Sweet. I love this stuff. Routing machines just fasinate me.

Did you have any trouble with that single bearing falling off the side of the guitar?

Good job,
Steve

I like it. You should have saved this for the contest. Looks like it was made from left overs. Thanks for the post.

Neat tool. Would like a chance to see it in action.

Neat routing machine – was over my head at first glance and I had to study it for a bit… before I gave up on the thought of (eventually, maybe someday) making a guitar. I’d be more motivated if I played.

bilsborough,
Now that’s the kind of thinking I like! The use of the wire lug out of the circuit breaker box. I find myself using pieces and parts for something other than what they were originaly intended-only problem I’ve found with that is my shop is full of things that I should have discarded-but couldn’t because I’m gonna use them someday for something else-LOL You get my vote for this category of another mans junk-now that’s a real treasure.
Sincerely,
Ken McGinnis

Thanks Bilsbourough,I’ve been looking for something like this as my son and I plan to make a guitar soon. I have been thinking of fastening the router on my drill press, but I might use your design instead.

Cool idea… Another way is to use a smaller router that doesn’t cover much of the guitar. and still another is to shave a shingle sized wedge of wood that is the pitch of the guitar back and attach it to a router base.

I’ve actually just used a standard router. Once you add the purfling and scrap it off the inside angle that it is glued to doesn’t really show as the pufling is scraped flush with the side and top of the guitar.

I do love inventive contraptions though.
