Re: A Few New Projects

Had a good week, working from home due to high tides making my office an island. That meant I got to spend a good bit of time in the shop.
started with a rough billet and a glued-up block of cherry: Was feeling good about machining, so was able to get the shaping of the headstock, neck relief and face complete: And did the rough weight relief on the back. This operation takes forever, so figured I'd just do what I can for now, until I get final measurements/bridge placement. And got the body cut and shaped: Last but not least, had a body not work out- so patched it with CA and sawdust and will make a DC body with more weight relief for the prototype neck
