chocolateducttape Report post Posted July 4, 2008 Hi y'all! So, I'm making a guitar cover, and I'll be lacing the edges. The only problem is, I have no idea how to go about punching slits on something three-dimensional like that. Any ideas? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rawhide Report post Posted July 5, 2008 I don't quite follow what you mean by 3 dimensional, but sounds like you may have to use a space wheel (stitch wheel) and a pair of nippers. Marlon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chocolateducttape Report post Posted July 5, 2008 Oh I was just talking about in terms of it being an awkward thing to punch slits around (like how would you go about punching slits in something that's on a guitar) but I think I've figured it out. I tested a theory on some scraps and if I punch slits in the front and back, punch slits in the side, then glue the pieces to the guitar and lace it all up, it'll work.

Rawhide Report post Posted July 5, 2008 yea.. you would want to punch all the holes first It's going to be a pain aligning it all up. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chocolateducttape Report post Posted July 5, 2008 Yeah... I was kind of reckoning on the front and back being the same. But, due to guitars being slightly convex on the back, they aren't. This will take a little more thinking. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
