Yup. Taking that into account! Thanks for the warning though, as I'm prone to overlook such details!Freeman Keller wrote: Steve, if you are going to bind the top (I think you said so in another thread) remember that most commercial wood and plastic binding is 1/4 inch tall. If you make your top any thicker than that (including veneer) you will see the seam.

Re: Roughing in an LP body
I've bought lots of different 10mm plastic binding on Amazon, if you need it wider.
Maybe I can't fix it, but I can fix it so no one can fix it

Re: Roughing in an LP body
Depending on how much chambering you do, you could just use a forstner bit and drill out a bunch of material before gluing the halves together. You would want to pay attention to depth of cut and could use a chisel to remove more material between drilled holes.

That's a good alternative, Eric. Might be able to try that on a future build.
