Great video, thanks. I don't have access to Spruce or Cedar unless I get a large sheet. I do have a small piece of rosewood. Would that be OK? The crack I am fixing is about a inch in length. Thanks

Oh no. Rosewood would not be a good choice

What do you do if your fat hands can’t reach where you need to place the clear. Having a hard time reached a crack on the lower bout on the back.

If you have a kid or a wife, it may be helpful to ask for their hand for a moment. We borrow smaller hands all the time when we can't get in a soundhole.
