SharePoint Calendar – Offset and length were out of bounds….

Posted on by Iain 'Cutty' Carlin

When swapping from the Day view to Week view of a SharePoint calendar, we were getting the following error message: “Offset and length were out of bounds for the array or count is greater than the number of elements from index to the end of the source collection”.

Tried setting the Information Management Policy Settings to 2 months (was 3) to archive list down to less items (It had about 4800 records, got it down to 4200). [NB: Run Information Management Policy job first, then Expiration Policy]. Problem was not resolved.

We have 2 views of the data, filtered to a different number of items in each.…

Week 28 – Bridge and masking

Posted on by Iain 'Cutty' Carlin
  • Located bridge on body by measuring 645.2mm down from bottom of nu to bottom E string crossover point
  • Centred by laying straight edge down side of fretboard and measuring distance across to holes of both E strings. Once distance is the same, bridge is centred.
  • Make square with neck by using fret ruler laid centrally on neck to flat edge of bridge with end of ruler
  • Put masking tape in approximate position across bridge location
  • Clamped in place with bridge clamps through sound hole then drilled through E string pin holes with 2 drill bits to locate
  • Carefully score around bridge location with knife and remove around bridge
  • Masked up sound hole by gradually building up tape from the outer edges of sound hole till small hole left in centre.

Week 24 – Things get ugly

Posted on by Iain 'Cutty' Carlin

Fret Board

  • Took off the clamps and wood holding down the frets on the fret board. Unfortunately they didn’t hold in place and all but the 1st fret had to be removed to start again.
  • Sanded back the fret board and reglued one fret after leaving the sanding grit in the fret channel to see if it would hold. Left for 2 hours to dry.
  • Came back after 2 hours and fret still hadn’t stuck
  • Got an off-cut of fret board and sanded enough powder to make a ‘gap-filler’ paste and spread over the side of the fret that needed re-bedding and put on excess glue on frets and re-inserted.
