Attaching the Top and Back (Closing the Box) | Building an Acoustic Guitar

Its time to close the box on the acoustic guitar. This is an exciting step as I glue the top and back plates to the rim of my guitar. Once thats done I'll use a router to trim the top and back flush with the sides.

Hi,
I have a neighbour dropping into my workshop today to close up a guitar he made.
First timers so your video has at least given me a starting point on how to do it. I do have a spot where I can use clampy gluey sticks so that we be the way we go!
8:50 where you said, "Don't be scared" scared me! But, I need a challenge today and that is going to be it!
Wish me luck and I might drop a short video on One Handed Maker channel if it doesn't turn to chaos.
Thanks for the video/tutorial, much appreciated.
Regards James

Yet another genius idea with the form clamps. Very clever

[@terristroh3965]

This process has been so cool to watch! You sort of looked like a proud daddy when the body popped out of the clamps.

When you put on the top and back, that wood that was just a bunch of pieces, is a guitar body! Amazing feeling. I remember first one I did. I just shook my head and said, I did that? Great job, always enjoy your videos!

[@spittalmusic]

Is am so enjoying watching this series, whilst I await my wood from stew Mac being shipped to the uk. Your presenting style, or I should say teaching style, is so refreshingly warm and friendly, and really clear at the same time. You absolutely deserve far more views and likes and subs given the quality of you work. Thanks so much. Really looking forward to getting to the end of your project with you!

[@homebuiltshop]

Thank you. I really appreciate that. The end of this project is very near.

[@rafaellastracom6411]

Nice to see you again dude, keep on rockin´.

[@rauschguitars]

That's looking great! The binding will add a nice touch, I'll keep my eyes on the rest of the build.

[@CMRWoodworks]

Nice! The light inside to check the notches is a great idea!

[@TroodosPoolGuy]

Very, very nice!

[@robertr4193]

That guitar is going to sound lovely and look real nice.

[@rickculpepper709]

Dude that’s cool stuff

[@giovannipetitti1588]

[@paulwaldrop2262]

Nice. Kinda thought you were a closure type. :D

You should be wearing a respirator friend. Wood dust does not belong in your lungs.
