Welcome to Crimson Guitars https://www.youtube.com/user/CrimsonC... and welcome to a short tutorial with Ben Crowe at Crimson Guitars http://www.crimsonguitars.com

Every woodworker and guitar builder knows just how fickle our mistress, timber, can be. Often we get to the final sanding of our custom guitar of a piece of fine shaker furniture and we find a small knothole or shake, or worm tract. The horror sets in and we start buying every product ever made to try and find the perfect wood filler with the perfect colour match. Nine times out of ten, you don't need to bother. You probably already have the makings of the perfect filler in your workshop.

Dust, and glue, a traditional and time-tested method that just works!
