The newest Luthier Tips du Jour instructional video is on Youtube. The topic is the arm bevel.
Subtitles are available in both English and Portuguese and you can translate them into any other language by using the CC option on Youtube.
As always, comments and discussion are welcome.
Enjoy!

+1 on a great tut. I've been wanting to add a bevel to my list of accomplishments.
This tut will make it semi-easy. Thanks again for all the sharing of skills on your
videos.

Excellent! I've read how it was done, but a movie speaks a thousand words.

Great tutorial as usual Robbie, but in my case a little late, my 1sy build with a arm rest is lacquered and waiting for the cure time to complete.

Keep these great videos coming

Fred

Robbie, I am sure after watching this a couple more times, and digesting it, that I may have some questions. Can I post them here for you - or do you recommend I ask someone else?

Thanks again for the great videos!

Robbie, you've done it again! Thanks for the great tut. I have a few more builds before I'm ready to add one, but I love them and eventually would like to be able to add one to any guitar I make [:Y:]

Thanks for taking the time once again Robbie. I most definitely am putting one on the next big one I do.

Cheers,
