Ok back to making this guitar.
been designing the headstock shape and from about 5 designs i made up ive picked one that i think will go with the fender strat pickguard shape. I want to make everything match.
i wanted to buy a drum sander but couldnt find one in town, tried to make a small one but it was not steady enough, so i used a coping saw to roughly cut out the headstock shape, then i bought some files and a small drill attachment and used lots of sandpaper.
TOOLS I USED
FINISHED PRODUCT
Just finished putting on the primer coats. I used a primer, sealer undercoat, this stuff is soo strong it sticks to glass, its also an awesome grain filler.
It dries in about 10 mins, enough to build up 2 or 3 coats. Will leave it for a few days to make sure it dries, then sand and 2 more coats. This sealer sands up really smooth and dries dead flat. You can put oil or acrilic paint over the top.
