I have already sanded some of the binding off in the neck pocket area and around its edges, so we either have a different definition of "tough", or I got gorilla hands. Probably both.

But sharp change of subject, I've read in one of your diaries that you can use alcohol to see glue marks in advance. I probably should do this next time. Is there a professional term for "white spirits"?
