I am wondering if you found the solutions to your problem regarding “how to make guitar bindings”??? FYI there is now plenty of info available online via google… search for: how to make guitar binding strips and you’ll get plenty of options to look at. ONE site that outlines the process in wood is: http://ultimate-guitar-building.com/how-to-make-wood-binding/ It is a time consuming process and there are plenty of pre-made purfling & binding strips available from most luthier suppliers which I’m sure everybody knows! I find I still have to resize and gauge to custom size using shop bought strips. The trickiest are those very thin strips used to build up a series of fine lines. I haven’t been able to figure that out so far except to use pre-cut veneer sheets cut into thin strips then glued up on edge. -- bilbaggins says: The best time to plant a tree is twenty years ago.
