He could have just bought the bone on eBay ready to cut. But impressive table




silddx -> RE: Fantastic video on inlaying bone in wood (Nov. 6 2024 8:26:31)

Thank you for that, astonishing, inspiring.

I like the way he cleans the bone. My grandfather said he used to bury cow bones in the soil and clean them to make toys. [:D]

That’s interesting, but not really useful to guitar makers because of the labor time vs. the actual savings. It more expensive labor wise to process bone yourself than to buy it processed and dimensioned close to the final nut. We’re trying to make a living, not prove that we can ‘live off the land’. It’s simply not cost effective to process your own bone. It’s also an awful process.

I agree. But the video just shows the ancient production. He did not use the clean bones he bought online but made it himself.[:)]

You could always up charge for the organically cleaned bone nuts and saddles. $3 dollars for a regular saddle $300 for the organically cleaned saddle. Even with the caveat that it may sound worse I bet people would want that. I'll let one of the more arty types try that out.

I was told by a supplier that unbleached bone sounds a little brighter than bleached, as the bleaching process makes the bone porous.

😂 Is there an empirical evidence study supporting this? The bleached bone we buy isn’t porous and is quite hard.

I like this, adding you could have a tiered system of up charge for in house bone production. Artisan Bone either buried for 60 days, or left in the mountains where eagles clean the meat from the bones and insects do the fine cleaning. Like in Tibet where the deceased humans are taken to a special mesa and cut into pieces for the eagles to eat. It’s called ‘sky burial’ because the ground is too hard and stony to dig graves in.

You could have 300€ Earth Cleaned Bone or 500€ Sky Burial Bone, and you donate 60€ to Free Tibet every time the customer selects Sky Bone.

Earth Bone gives a deep warmth the terroir of your guitar sound, while Sky Bone sings clear as an Eagles cry.

only to get worn out from use and changed with plastic. Actually, what is wrong with Plastic "bone" saddles?

Plastic wears out faster and also doesn't transmit the vibrations to the Wood Sprites as well so they don't dance nearly the same way and the stardust they sprinkle doesn't sparkle quite as much. It's hard to notice this stuff unless you play in a really dark room, however, and you kind of have to be attuned to the faerie world so unless you have long hair that blows itself sideways even on a still day then you probably shouldn't be asking questions like this.

It’s a job requirement to be a guitar maker

True, but he wouldn’t have gotten his artisan stipend from the Chinese communist party unless he went through the actions of demonstrating how the proletariat artisans practice purism at craft.

Plastic is no good because it’s even harder and nastier to clean the bones of plastic cows.
