Hi Gary, when you come to do the finishing, would it be possible to show a novice like me a step by step guide/explanation of your French polishing technique? It's something I want to try but it seems like a dark art and beyond my knowledge. Many thanks and best wishes as always. Keith
Hello Keith, Thanks for you comment. If you have a look at my Archtop #4 playlist th-cam.com/play/PLOEb1dYICJrZbY_8ODZC0DgZMNeK_oc11.html You'll find four videos where I explain how I French polish. Take care & keep safe, Gary
@@NavaGuitars Hi Gary, I've just watched your French polishing tutorials. I'm going to start practicing early in the new year. I'd really like to thank you for all the input you share. I'm just getting into building (mainly guitars and lap steels) and look to people who inspire me in my attempts at becoming a luthier....and you fill that void so well. Thanks again for sharing you knowledge!
@@likeakite Many thanks for your kind words, Keith. It is always good to know that your efforts are appreciated. Good luck with your polishing- you can always contact me via my website if you get stuck. Take care and keep safe, Gary
