How to prevent guitar string breaks by deburring your tuning pegs

In this video, we look at the finished product after 1 hour of work, deburring the string holes, and adding a small radius to edges.

But bear in mind, thats 1 hour, just on the tuning peg deburr, after the tuners are already removed fr the guitar.

And that doesnt include the time it would take to put it all back together too.

So, let’s say you break a string, and inspect your peg hole, and see a burr, realistically how long is it going to take to do the job?

You could just do one peg hole, since its usually just one peg that really needs it, but i do all 6 every time.

This is the first time i did this deburr job with the pegs removed from the guitar, which enabled me to handle the pegs with much more dexterity, than if they were still in the guitar.
