Here we go again.
Remember the scroll badly glued with lashings of PVA?
Well I had to break the "repair" open. Very carefully.
Its very hot and humid here in Sydney and not a good time to be gluing neck blocks so I'm going to clean out all the PVA.
Here's my workshop for the afternoon:
The equipment
The PVA mess
VERY fiddly job. Steam, vinegar, stiff brush, pick pick pick with sharp knife and tweezers and a LOT of patience. More like dentistry than luthiery. All done with a 10x magnifying visor, too.
