personally, Id like to see a bit of glue when i look into a guitar. Not a sloppy mess, but i think perhaps too much emphasis is placed on this type of neatness.
sorry guys, I`m not trying to start trouble here.

Love my chisel as well, great tool, i use it to carve a point on the piece of maple binding that I use for a glue chisel. when the maple gets dull, i put a new point of it in one second flat, and it wont gouge the top as easily.

No trouble at all,

I think its fair to say that we all build guitars to suite our own fancy, no?
This suites mine. Thats all
