Jointing the Plates - Eric Schaefer Guitars - Online Guitar Building School 

This is a really helpful video thanks Eric. Some great ideas from the hold down clamp on the shooting board and especially the "plan B" method with the sanding bar. I've seen too many videos where the operator get the join spot on after the first attempt and then offers no advise to the mere mortals, like myself, that can't. Thanks again.

why hasn't Eric got 1 billion subscribers? What a fantastic channel

i really appreciate this one, having just recently learned the hard way that using a plane is not easy peasy

This was exactly what I was looking for and your explanations and demonstrates were spot on. Thank you so much!!

Great video. A third alternative to the lightbox in poor daylight is to take the pice outside and lay it against the window with your shop lights on full.

Thank you for sharing you expertise. I appreciate it very much. Best wishes

Eric: The light box from the window works in my house! It helps if your windows are squeky clean.

Nice tutorial. If u don't have a light box u can flip the pair up on a flat surface (glass or a cast iron top works well) and shine a light from behind to observe the joint.

Eric, can you use a 6” jointer set for a very light cut say, 1/32 or so? Or is a jointer too aggressive?

thank you Eric .

Nice Video Eric..

Eric, can you use a 6” jointer set for a very light cut say, 1/32 or so? Or is a jointer too aggressive? Or can you make the joints even before planing it down to the right thickness?

Thank you Eric, that helped a lot. I am writing this comment to trigger algorithym to get you more views.

Thanks for sharing Eric. When you put the pieces together and check for light, are you applying any pressure or should the ends come together w/o any pressure?

Was that Beeswing Mahogany back set flat sawn or am I just not seeing it right?

Hi Eric, what kind of glue did you use to glue the sand paper to the lever?
