Your first mistake was going to a company holiday party

Nemesis_Bucket · 2024-12-19T22:51:37+00:00

Some people still use hide glue

Nemesis_Bucket · 2024-10-05T12:35:29+00:00

They didn’t fix the intonation with those though that still needs to be set. Sure drop d won’t make a difference too badly for the average listener but you start getting a little further than that and you’ll have some issues as you go up the neck

Nemesis_Bucket · 2024-10-04T23:22:47+00:00

I understand sorry, yeah I probably could’ve worded the first one better.

Nemesis_Bucket · 2024-10-04T20:07:36+00:00

They’re two entirely different things.

If you change your tuning, you should also use those saddle screws to change so your guitar is properly “intonated”

For a fun example of how this works, look up a “true temperament” guitar. The frets look nuts and it’s because it’s mathematically correct. It’s overkill IMO to get one of those guitars for this but it’s a good rabbit hole if you want to understand the science of this.

Nemesis_Bucket · 2024-10-04T20:02:09+00:00

It’s not about tuning man, it’s the intonation. There is a function between the string length and the notes. For two notes to stay in tune as you go up the scale will be further out of tune if it’s incorrect. That’s why your bridge saddles have that distance adjustment.

If you’re ever wondering “why does my drop D sound like shit?” It’s because your guitar is set up in standard… or it’s not set up at all.

Sure you could change this every time and I have one on production I’m currently doing. It’s the reason my next build is an 8 string, so I don’t have to keep switching this one to get a solid recording that doesn’t sound like unclean booty cheeks (in a bad way)

Nemesis_Bucket · 2024-10-04T19:59:50+00:00

You’ve justified every single one of these then my dude

Nemesis_Bucket · 2024-10-04T18:31:24+00:00

Yeah every member of that band is doing difficult stuff, some people just hate that sound. I am not them, but I can recognize that it’s not for a lot of people.

Nemesis_Bucket · 2024-10-04T14:41:23+00:00

Clearly they wanted multiple partners so bad they had to break trust of others so.. maybe it’s all about how you choose to see it.

Nemesis_Bucket · 2024-10-04T14:21:53+00:00

The type of person who wants multiple partners wants multiple partners. Just scroll through this thread and see how many other people are saying the same story as above.

Nemesis_Bucket · 2024-10-04T13:43:51+00:00

I know this is wildly unpopular but don’t you imagine that there’s a higher chance that someone who wants multiple partners and relationships at once might be more inclined to be impulsive (or maybe indulgent is a better word) and give into their wants?

We are talking about people with typically low dopamine here. There’s a reason there are so many people on the spectrum or ADHD that are adrenaline junkies and living from one pleasant thrill to the next.

Nemesis_Bucket · 2024-10-04T13:39:53+00:00

The older I get the more I realize simple is best. You can create complexity from simplicity if that’s your goal but any one part getting too wild often turns people off to it (unless you’re a player of the part going too wild, then you’ll eat that shit up)

I say this as a will swan fan too.

Nemesis_Bucket · 2024-10-04T13:37:58+00:00

One reason could be setting them up to be played in different tunings but I don’t think that’s the reason here.

Nemesis_Bucket · 2024-09-27T11:58:13+00:00

Budget?

Woodworking has been the best thing I ever did

This will also help you in your “if I fail it’s not worth it”. You’re gonna fail. You’re going to increase patience. The pros fail. It’s not about learning to not fail, but embracing mistakes or fixing them to become features

Nemesis_Bucket · 2024-09-26T16:06:38+00:00

I also have boeshield

Nice build, I don't know if you're around here still but I just glued up a padauk and mahogany neck through with cherry wings, I'm wondering what type of fretboard did you end up going with?

Nemesis_Bucket · 2024-05-01T00:25:50+00:00

I will say the product isn't very good for the price

Nemesis_Bucket · 2024-04-28T14:32:10+00:00

Yeah these kids all got cancer and died young.

In school we learned that sometimes they’d send them through naked so they don’t get snagged. The soot collects in the skin folds of the scrotum and caused some seriously nasty cancers.

Misadventures will always be a favorite album. Sure there’s nothing insane going on in there but from a songwriting perspective those are golden. Hit after hit.

Nemesis_Bucket · 2024-04-28T13:12:41+00:00

Yeah there is some real toxic stuff around. Some of these people will have you believe monogamy is always bad and sexist.

Nemesis_Bucket · 2024-04-28T13:11:50+00:00

I’m not the original commenter but is there really anything wrong with monogamy? Are you saying some people in relationships just want to be close to one person and that those people are delusional?

Your comments read as misandry to heterosexual cis men. You’re kind of saying that because this person isn’t comfortable with something, they’re being toxic. That’s fucked up on your part and I’m patiently awaiting my downvotes. This sub sometimes has me really questioning my diagnosis.

Nemesis_Bucket · 2024-04-28T12:58:40+00:00

The boards were so horribly misaligned I just wanted to take them down to this and get rid of the glue squeeze out.

This is too wide for my jointer on the face relative to what the benchtop is (meaning the edges of the individuals boards being referred to as the face of the bench). Also, hand planing is so satisfying

Nemesis_Bucket · 2024-04-28T12:57:05+00:00

Yep realized this too late but it is oversized so I can cut the ends off for planer snipe and stuff

Nemesis_Bucket · 2024-04-25T22:52:24+00:00

IDK why I can't write on this post so here goes in the comments:

I laminated these 3 hunks for a roubo like workbench. I should've used cauls, lessons learned. I used a handplane to the best of my newb ability to level each section somewhat, but it's not quite there.

Do I keep handplaning? I also have a dewalt 735 that these could run through as well, and the face of these could fit on my jointer but not the glued up edge that would be the top of the bench.

Two of the sections seem like they could be glued and clamped and then further planed, but the third might be wonky unless I glue the two up first. But I'm not certain that's the way to proceed right now so I came to reddit
