Thanks John. One of my first thoughts when looking for a different way was the radius dishes, heck I used them to sand those radiuses, why not to clamp as well. So you confirmed my thought process and I think that's the way I'll go. I be watching for the video, I've watch most of your others (some several times), very useful.tippie53 wrote:If you use the radius disks, they make great gluing cawls. You can also make a set of clamp cawls with heavy foarm tape. I use the neoprene tape and lay it out in the profile of the guitar , that is your cawl and you can use weight or a gew bar clamps.
The key is that you dry fit the back and top so that you don't need much force. If ken uses rubber bands, he did a good job of fitting and that is the key. Ant forced joint is doomed to failure. We will be shooting video of this soon for the you tube series . Keep an eye open
