Bindings and zipflex are ready to be glued, but I'm still having a hard time cutting the purflings to size
I guess I'll have to do this using handtools, since I don't own a bandsaw.
Purflings are made from black-white-black vulcanised fibre sheets (0.5mm thick). 1m length, 10 mm width.
Purfling channels are about 4mm deep, so I need to cut my 10mm purflings into two pieces of roughly 5mm which could be easily scraped once glued.
Tried with a veneer saw, but purflings are 1,5mm thick and the saw gets stuck after cutting around 1mm.
How would you do that without a band saw? Tried different approaches but the resulting cut was not accurate enough and I ended up having two purflings of irregular width.
It would be great to hear your advice, can't wait to finishing the body to further working on the neck.
