So after absorbing as much as i could about guitar building and some general woodworking (including some great feedback from folks here), i finally got down to brass tax and began the actual journey.
After some time i decided on the Ryobi 2HP Plunge router. and so begun the sickness of buying more and more tools.
First order of business was to build a solid work bench.
Got to use my router first thing making the channels for the rod span joints.
Here is my first jig so i could make the routes straight on the spans
The bench top is 2 3/4" MDF laminated together. Drilling for the sheetscrews w/ countersync. I plan to drill dog holes leater so i spaced the screws accordingly.
Glue on the top piece and then i spread with a paint roller for even coating. (actually used more than in the pic)
And now I have a solid work space.
I still need to seal the top. I am thinking about just using a shellac and maybe putting some trim around the sides.
