I’m looking to invest in a quality inspection camera for acoustic repairs. Something that I can hook up to a screen and do work with in those hard to see spots and also record what I’m seeing to show customers that loose brace. What inspection cameras are you using for your repairs?

I got this one and use it with a laptop. I cant seem to find one for mobile that doesn’t require a shady app.

Ideally both. Polly needs abrasion for adhesion. If you’re concerned about scuffing leading to a weird decal situation, I’d just strip the face of the peghead and start over. No scuff, is really dicey.

This is speculation, but you could spray on, with a rattle can if you are using wipe on to avoid spray gear, a coat just thick enough to set the decal in place and provide a barrier. In general though, those decals are so delicate, even just wiping a paper towel over them is dicey. If you are spraying over poly, make sure you scuff before…

Over-planed neck blank -- too thin?
Hi — I’m building a Thinline Tele and accidentally over-planed the mahogany neck blank. It is now 18.7 mm thick on avg and my rosewood fingerboard is 5.95 mm — for a total of 24.65 mm instead of the recommended 25.4 mm (1 inch). So the total thickness will be thinner by 0.75 mm or so.
1. Am I still within practical tolerance and therefore…
