- I was all set to use the router on cutting out the guitar rosette and now I am faced with an unexpected problem. How can this happen? I do not want to put my acoustic guitar building on hold for a week.

My vote would be to try something new and take us along for the ride! 👍🏼
You will always be welcome where ever I go.
I just love your stuff - your honesty and sense of humor are refreshing. I’m still having trouble with the fact that you don’t like coffee. I generally don’t like people who don’t like coffee...but for you (and my husband) I’ll make an exception. 😋
Thank you...I do appreciate that.
Yes, I could have spit nickels once or twice before. Lord, you see where he put those bits... show Monty where to look. 😊💕 Love you Monty!!! See ya soon.
Once I was Lost NOW I am found. coming up in a future video.
love ya Monty! When you stop looking you will find them x
That is exactly what happened. lol
Well, you know the quickest way to find something is to stop looking for it. I definitely think the shell, but that's just my personal preference.
Great video, have some tea and a biscuit and unwind,
Jimmy
Jimmy, great advice and I'll do just that. Thanks.
My friends refer to loosing something, the way you describe as a senior moment. Don't feel bad; we all go through it. My philosophy is when you pass 60 years of age, two things happen. One is you forget things. And I forget the second thing.......Don't worry, they'll turn up - although usually just after you hit the Order button to replace them. It just shows you are human. I could give you my formula for finding things, but I believe it only works for me. Just hang in there. They will turn up. Take care and keep the faith my friend.
Absolutely. Thanks for this.
How about I come over and lend 10+ years of search and rescue training...
That would be great, however, I ordered new bits this morning. 1 day of experience without my bits. lol
MUCH LOVE TO YOU FROM NIGERIA
Wow2, that is a long way from here. Thanks for joining in on the fun.
I'm sorry for your loss Monty. I usually stop looking and do something else or look for something different and what was lost usually shows up. When you do get them, I think the shell with the black trim would look great!
Thank you.
Perhaps Peter borrowed them with out asking? I think the shell with the black would look nice
Shell with black is a good combo. Thanks
Hey Monty! these things happen. Something very important to do is, breathing in and out and then, If I were you I would try to find those bits. Take your time before you buy others, cause it can happen that after you return from the store with the new ones, then you might find the old ones, lol...
Yes, that could easily happen to me. I'll keep looking.
I spit nickels at the like button. I'm sorry you're having trouble finding those bits. If I were around the corner I would come help for sure.
Thanks! lol
I lose stuff all the time and find it in unexpected places. They’ll turn up!!
I vote black-white-black perf, then shell, then white-black-white. It’ll be beautiful. Now I’ll play my Taylor and reflect on where you might find your bits.
I like your suggestion. Thank you Ross.
I hate when I do that too. I'm forced to keep all my bits in labelled plastic sorting bins like you have on the back toolbox beside the orange bins. It should turn up.
Enjoy the tea and thank you Monty.
It will. lol
Best intro ever!!!
Wow, thank you.
sit and meditate on the object. breathe, drink some tea, envision how it feels in your hands. Listen to its energy. Drink some tea. it will come home. Give it a try. could be a fun video.
Thank you!
Like my old man use to say “Son Where have you put my router bits, stop taking my gear and not putting it back!”😂😂 as Murphy would have it you will find them after your new ones turn up!👍
Your dad nailed it. They're here somewhere.
I feel your pain, Montyt. From time to time I also find something has seemingly dematerialised and probably popped into another dimension. Order from Amazon with Prime, you'll get them tomorrow!
That is exactly what I did. Will arrive later today. lol
the shell my man, do the shell..
The guitar will definitely have shell on the top.
Had to consult google metric translation everytime you throw those fractions. :)
It's difficult even as a builder. ⅛" 3.2mm etc. Drives me crazy.
I am not an expert on guitars. I would have to see pictures of each finished version of the rings to know what they look like. So I guess my input will not matter. You will find those bits as soon as your new ones arrive. ;) That's my luck anyway.
Check out Anndy playing the Australian guitar. You'll see it there.
Aww dang! I so sympathize. Whenever I need phillips head I only find flat head in the drawer and whenever I need flat all I find are phillips! A few days ago I lost my keys (I never lose my keys), eventually finding them in my idle shoe. I have a specific and precise location for my keys at all times! How do they end up in a shoe!!!? 🤷♂️ I hope you find your tools Monty. Being a CNC operator I’m very familiar with the expense of precision router tools.
Thanks, Email me if you think there is a CNC software that I could use on some of the guitar parts. And who makes an affordable machine that I could use for building guitars faster. Thanks.
What about on top of the boxes under the side benches, under the miter saw, jointer or any other movable tools you might not keep on the benches full time.
Didn't check those. I'll go take a look. Thanks!
I've learned that the more that you continuously keep looking for something, the less likely you're going to find it... Let whatever your looking for go, at least for now and then when your not looking for it, you'll then find it, lol but I know the wagon wheel design would have been amazing, but maybe that layout design was needed for a different guitar! So I would suggest trying a different layout!
I am leaning towards something different. Thanks for your input.
I always enjoy your videos
Thank you but I know I need to do better. I've got a few ideas to do that. LOL
Maybe the bits are behind the plainer or joiner. whatever that tool is.
It's a jointer and I did look there. lol
Nice intro pete!
If you think that is good look at his latest video about the mountains in Alberta. Get some tissue.
I bet you left those bits in a pocket somewhere. My sister had the habit of leaving her car keys in the fridge. If you can't find them in the usual places then look in the unusual places.
I checked the frighted....they're not there. lol
I would like to see the shell.
Oh it is coming up very soon. Has a heavy green look to it.
Is it possible that you had the bits in your hand or inadvertently placed in a pocket when going to the kitchen to make English Breakfast tea? Hope you locate them!
I wish that was the case.
My girlfriend once said the same thing. “I’ve never done that before.” So...I showed her a new way to roast vegetables.
Oh that is funny. Now I need to find a new way to do this. lol
🤔🤔 😣🤯🤯 have a cuppa, I’m sure those bits will turn up.
Well...they are here somewhere. lol
What about 'on top of the black ones" on the back wall?
I didn't check there but I will.
Is it chucked up in your drill by chance?
The ⅛" bit is there, but I am looking for 1/16" or 1/32". They're here somewhere! lol
This happens because you have stopped believing in the tooth fairy. Kids believe in the tooth fairy and when they lose a tooth, that's when the fairy visits them and makes them happy. So now you need to start up believing again, then the fairy will visit you and fix everything.
Don't they teach people this in guitar maker's school? 😋
Oh Kim....is that from the book? thank you for sending that along. Very kind of you and I am most appreciative.
@@MontyMcKinnon Hi Monty, i booke you like the book. The tooth fairy comment probably bounced into my head from Terry Pratchett's book, The Hogfather. Believing in the tooth fairy had a part to play there. As you guys go into winter it's time to get the movie, it's a total scream.
And i hope you find the router bits.
