Gramil's cheaper. Ayliffe 07-28-2007, 05:29 PM Looks like a job for a gramil! Or you could use a CNC router. But, you know. Gramil's cheaper. hahaha just a tad. allenhumble 10-22-2007, 08:02 PM How do you bend the top to fit the body? How do you calculate the angle of the forarm rest?

Other than that, I have no idea, never did binding of that sort, just happened to come across this tool the other day. Phil Mailloux 10-22-2007, 08:34 PM A lot of laminate trimmers come with such a type of jig/accessory that will do what the stewmac binding attachment does. toman 10-23-2007, 12:27 AM Old-school: Purfling cutter and chisels...

How did they do that? PaleMelanesian 10-23-2007, 04:05 PM Absolutely no idea! Probably incantations and pixie dust. allenhumble 10-23-2007, 05:29 PM Does anyone have any idea how to bend a top to fit a fore arm contour?
