This is a good one John ... Thanks now that you're doing videos again, i have a request ! Would you please address in a upcoming video. " How to Tune the Back Plate to the Top Soundboard." fyi, i am building two guitars using your kits. Thanks
that made 3 pick guards. I use those small cups to mix the color into the resin then hardener then mix together. Start light and keep adding color. I just drop and swish.
This is awesome, I’m looking for a cream vintage looking teardrop pickguard that’ll fit my Martin 000-16 Streetmaster. Do you make these and sell them?
Just want to be clear - your moulds or patterns are just flat, right? You put a thin puddle of resin on them and it flows out flat enough to use without any further finishing?
And you dont have to stay with in the lines. I love this process.
Great vid John, keep’em coming!

th-cam.com/video/8e5FowvTPr4/w-d-xo.html we did that already here you go
a teflon spray on the patterns before epoxy might help in releasing
John,
What “wax” product did you use on the 3rd/last mold that peeled easily? And what were the dye products?
Great video!!
good old fashioned minwax paste wax
Incredible John. Many thanks for sharing. Out of interest, how much epoxy did you use for the Three patterns?
about 3 oz

Thanks for sharing this! Do you know if there is a long term shrinkage factor? I'm guessing nowhere near celluloid.
I find using the system 3SB112 no shrinkage on pick guard for 10 yrs
What is the material you used for the form?

I don't make the cream color but with the proper dye I am sure you can/ Look at stew mac and LMI see if they don't stock them

yes keep level
Did you mean SB-112 epoxy instead of SB-12?
