    Part 1 of a series (I hope) It's in French, so I don't understand a word. But the dude cuts a truss rod channel with a hand plane. WITH A HAND PLANE!:cool:

    Does he, by any chance, use a hand plane to cut the truss rod groove?

    I didn't believe it. Then I saw it. Crazy. I guess it's technically a chisel in a hand plane slide. Still way cooler than how I do it with a router.

    true woodworker there... no need for safety glasses or dust masks, especially when you're ONLY working with a 2' long, 4" diameter OPEN drum sander...

    OK, that was pretty cool...I thought the French thing would knock me off track, but when he pulled the Floyd Rose out...gone.
    I'm just not a fan of Floyds. He was pretty danged good with those tools, though. Neat video.

    There's a fine line between ornate and gaudy.
