WEEK 3!

Achievements: This week I did a lot, I sanded the body of my guitar perfectly smooth and trimmed the edge with a router table, we went around twice to make nice soft edges. I then sanded again to get rid of any burn marks. I also attached my finger board to the neck of my guitar with glue and nails and a rubber band. This was my favorite part of the week. We also inserted my trust rod into the neck of my guitar.

Tools: sandpaper, router table, spindle sander, glue

What I learned: This week I learned how to use the router table and learned some of Mr. McCormack’s cool tricks when it came to attaching my fingerboard to my neck like having the nails line up the fingerboard. I also learned that from the top of the screws on the string holder to the nut fret should be 25.5 inches.
