Good effort. We use fly cutters ground to width with 0.15mm for glue tolerance. You will be very fortunate if you manage to avoid yellowing down the cells of your spruce caused by the superglue. These usually come to light when finishing. Cross fingers :)

Very interesting video... As an amature luthier with about 12 guitars under my belt I do think in some steps you may be overthinking a bit and making things a bit more difficult than need be however the results are great which is really all that matters. One of the great things about guitar building is there are very many ways to get to the same end.. oh and rosettes are an expression of the builder's aesthetic .. Well done with yours!!!..... PS bind the interior edge of the sound hole in ebony :-)..

The strength thing: There is wisdom in the old way. The ebony purfling makes a harder edge, but you then open it for impact. If it gets a hit, it's more likely to break loose from the top. When it sits in the groove, it's glued from 3 sides. A hit on the spruce edge bruises it and may cause a split, but that stops at the purfling. Violin edges are made the same way.

Thin CA (Super) glue will usually stain spruce. Therefore it is best to seal the spruce with shellac or a thinned out wood glue before inserting the outside and inside rings and CA gluing them in.

Interesting point about the edge of the sound hole. Thinking about it, I remembered that my classical guitar has tortoise shell around the sound hole, probably for the same reason. Also the top of that one is cedar, probably a bit softer even than spruce.
@SusanGardener
7 жыл бұрын
+Cadwaladr See Esa's comment about spruce edges. You're right that cedar is softer than spruce. Given that we make sure that quality guitars have all their end grain edges covered with binding, I find it odd that we leave the edge of the soundboard raw though.

What is the jig that you made for cutting the arc into the small pieces of wood on the saw about 4 minutes into the video? That looks like a clever construct and I would love to see how the jig is set up. I have been struggling with consistent ways to get the right taper on pieces for a rosette.

I'm surprised you were able to use such a small diameter "spike" hole and keep things accurate enough. Spruce tops are too soft to really offer much holding resistant to rotate around. A circle cutter with at least a 1/4 inch diameter hole with a metal insert in the spruce is much better to insert a circle cutter's pivot. Then use a 1/4" dia. bit in a laminate router (Bosh Colt or other) makes quick and accurate routing without any wobble like your little hobby router is doing. The extra weight and accuracy of the bearings in the larger router makes things much easier and faster without any significant extra cost.

+andrewenson The ebony will definitely not bend without heat - only a very thin veneer would be flexible enough to not need heat bending. I used a thick CA glue on the tiles, and the thin spout was on a super thin CA glue that wicks into cracks.

Sue, wouldn't it be better to leave a lip of spruce around the inside of the sound hole to stabilize the rosette? My thought is that over time the rosette would come loose from possible pick wear.
