Also, if you watch closely, you might catch a slight mechanical mishap with a piece of equipment (which I forgot to edit out. oops)

To clarify, I bought (from StewMac) medium/high fret wire as opposed to medium/medium. This means that not only is the crown higher but also the tang is longer.

Very nice work on the logo, it’s good to see work like that being done by hand and not using CNC. Also like the fretboard as it’s the way I started many years ago before it got fret templates and a fa...

I do like the look of that @jmcmi93888. 👍 🎸🙏🎶🙂

@jmcmi93888 And now.The headstock logo. That's great work, I do like that. That's a skill that I'm going to have learn.

And now.The headstock logo. Attachment : template.jpg My "Thistle" logo was adapted to suit the narrower head and transferred onto 1/64th plywood then taped onto the headstock. careful scribing...

Yup, Crystalac is the way forward. Long cure time though… You lucky devils in the UK even have a distributor.

Congratulations @russ! Sounds like you’re getting a handle on the storage, now get to building! Looking forward to seeing it come together…

So the edit button works?!? Awesome, now where’s that @tv101?

@robin I have maple or mahogany, could use the mahogany which would match the neck, I’ll mock one up and see how it goes.

Great job @tej! For the truss rod cover my suggestion is to match the headstock so it blends in and doesn’t obscure that nice looking wood!

@tej I like to make the truss rod cover from wood to match the headstock. If you're going to have a scaled down headstock shape, maybe it would look good in a contrasting wood.
