Making kerfing from scratch

I made a kerfed lining jig because I don’t have any pre-made linings on hand and want to save money. I dimensioned the kerfing strips from rough quartersawn spruce bracewood stock down to 8mm wide and 5.5mm thick strips. I got these dimensions from the kerfed lining product description for bracewood that LMI sells in their mandolin building kits. I used the miter gauge on the bandsaw to make a square cut into the jig. I cut just deep enough so that only 5mm of the blade was left protruding out the jig. That will leave a 5mm deep kerf in the 5.5mm thick bracewood. I made another square cut with the bandsaw 6mm from the first cut. This one is for the spline. I stacked two feeler gauges together to make the spline 0.8mm thick, which is just shy of the thickness of the bandsaw blade. I used medium CA glue in the spline kerf and then pushed the spline all the way into the kerf. For the spline kerf, I only cut deep enough so that 4mm of the spline was left protruding out of the jig. Note: to figure out which side of the kerfing strips to cut the kerfs into, I looked at some premade guitar kerfed linings that I already had and will be using in my next guitar build. The kerfs get cut into the quartersawn side. So, basically, the top and back plates of the instrument get glued to the flat-sawn side of the kerfing. Once I figured that out, that let me know how to dimension the rough bracewood stock. I got the concept for the jig from Peregrine Guitars in his video, linked here:    • Make Your Own Kerfing   #guitarbuilding #savemoney #acousticguitar #kerfedlinings #guitarmaking
