Hello all,
Hopefully the wealth of knowledge here can save my rear end again. I installed the end piece on my first guitar today. I kept it very simple with a maple piece with some ebony pufling. It cut and went in easier than I thought it would. I glued it using CA and it glued solid (just how we want it), everything for once went off without a hitch. I hung it up in my shed for it to dry like I would normally for little jobs and went out for the evening. When I got in I thought I would go check on a job well done, only to find it had fallen off the hanger and fell onto the corner of a cupboard door taking a small but very noticeable chunk out of the side of the guitar and made some pretty small bad scuffs.
I can't find the piece it took out anywhere so I can't just glue it back in. I know these sort of things can be fixed, but I don't really know how to go about it. The photo is a quick shot taken on my iPhone but is hopefully enough for a rough idea of a fix. I suspect the scuffs will be sanded out with my final sanding, but the chunk is too deep to be sanded out. If it can be filled in with saw dust, what is the best way to go about this?
I haven't really sanded or scraped the end piece out much except a quick few strokes with a block plane to take down the main mass, but the scuffs are on the left side and the main damage is on the right side.
