Well, "hardest" meaning the most strenuous. I know there are still plenty of opportunities to screw it up haha. @wayne_f Yes, I totally agree o...

Nice video @wayne_f , I'm not sure that making the neck is the hardest bit, but I do enjoy it though.

@tej Thats looking really good, the depth to that green is great. Try scraping the glue residue with a blade, I think you could be more accurate in ...

Nice work there Robin, thanks for the suggestion, it’s one option I can't claim credit for that work @boo , it's a shop bought guitar from many ye...

@boo As an example, my Tanglewood Tomkat has a little fillet at the neck join.

@boo Could you clean off the sharp edges and put a small fillet around the joint, maybe an epoxy filler, then paint it again.

I could crack an obvious joke about age here but I wouldn’t be so rude to you Robin. Be as rude as you like @boo , can't hide from being old, star...

Top job@robin, that came out great! I really like the offset shape and neck joint, the color looks fab as well! How does it play and sound? Thanks...

Actually feeling surprised no one mentioned this near miss. @cheesewhisk No one would have noticed, slap some graphite shielding paint over it.

Thanks for the eencouragement @boo , I'm not going to tamper with it and risk spoiling the finish that I've got. The next project is still a block of ...

Looks great! Headstock is awesome! Thanks @ wayne_f The headstock started off a little bigger than that. I tried to use a handheld polishing mo...

@wayne_f Routing the headstock angle revealed a defect exactly at the edge of where the headtock will be. Maybe I can get some grain filler to fi...

@cheesewhisk I know that feeling all to well when you think you've ruined weeks of work, but once you calm down and think about it there's always a f...

Thanks @boo I can see small swirly scratches shining through the lacquer when I turn it in the sunhine, I don't know if these would polish out or no...

I like how you have shaped the neck heel to the body Thanks @russ it didn't start off quite as close as that, but by the time I sanded out saw c...
