Thank you John for letting people know that you can rough out your saddle without an expensive thickness sander .. I already knew this , howevits great to see people post this on the web .... I have learned a lot from you over the years... thanks for posting all your videos... BTW, your video that explains how to set dovetail necks is the the best on the web .... and thanks to you I would rather set a dovetail neck than a mortise and tenon ...bolt on ... Because you don't have to bolt it on to check neck angle over and over ... I also use a sanding block to do the job like you show . And chalk instead of carbon paper .. it's so fast .... Now as a luthier I'm the only one doing neck resets that all the local luthiers shy away from.

I would be keen to know what sandpaper grits are used here on the belt sander and granite block? And are any particular types of sandpaper preferable for making up nuts and saddles in terms of clog etc - great stuff as always 👍🏻

You can get incredibly flat off cuts of granite from countertop makers… I got a perfect size piece free.
