Inlace for inlay

[liquidguitars]

Inlace, 2 part mix, is nice way to give some detail on Carvewright projects, I am testing it out on my guitars necks right now and is holding up well.

fast to use and looks kind of cool when sanded flush..

LG,

Looks great! Impressive as always. If you get any more projects done and use this technique I'd love to see some more pictures of the end results.

Like body putty, too much hardener can cause heat and spontaneous combustion.... But correct use will cause no problems.

From the pdf.

Nice,

My pea brain is swimming with ideas for CW Chip Cut projects using the V-Groove bits and vector line tools.

I think this guitar is made from Corian and Inlace by the Fender custom shop or its real marble and gold I not sure..

LG. Carl,
Excuse a really dumb question. I've never done any instramanets. Can you really make a body outa corian? :confused:
This stuff never ceases to amaze me.

[pine acres woodshop]

You could make a guitar body out of anything, if you have the vision, and or crazyness to try it, don't know how it would sound, But sure why not.

Use your imagination, with this machine the possiablites are limitless. I have to agree with Mark about the sound. I think that LG will give a better answer so I will leave it for him. I only do the violins and fiddles.

I just can't imagine a guitar with a Corian body being practical. The weight would make it a burden to bear! I played a Fender Jaguar for years. At 8.5 pounds it was not comfortable on four forty-five minute sets. One with a Corian body, I'm guessing, would weigh 12 to 14 pounds.

You can't really tell from the picture but looks like it could be a hammered finish paint?

In 1996 the Fender Custom Shop made six or seven All Corian guitars. I have only seen five of them. They went on a world tour. If the one pictured in Liquidguitar's post is one of them it was done before Inlace was set free from the dental business. Yes it was for decorating teeth.

The Fender Corian guitars had one claim to fame besides the design and that was that they all played identical. Fender had never done that before. I used to have the articles on them but I lost them about 5 years ago in a move.

Acoustic guitars have been made of 1/8" Corian and they are supposed to sound wonderful. But since the thinnest that Corian comes is 1/4" and the best colors only come in 1/2" stock there is some milling to do. But assembly and heat bending the sides would take no time at all.

An easy substitute for Inlace is crushed corian or Stone, applied as a powder. Then you apply wicking grade CA. In an hour you sand off the excess.

If you want the duPont booklet "Working with Corian in the Home Workshop", give me a call 1-800-724-4008

I hope this helps
