Next I checked the string action. I made two small guages to replicate the height that the strings will sit above the fretboard. One to sit at the nut...

Then I put a 16" radius on it. Same technique as the leveling beam but with a radius block. 🎸🙂🎶🙏

Next I went on to leveling the fretboard. Just covered it in chalk and kept going with the sanding beam until I got there. 🙏🎶🙂🎸

@dhawkes1gmail-com Nice work Dan. Onwards and upwards now. Is the logo an inlay or a decal? 🎸🙂🎶🙏

Lovin' the wee tool chest @koendb. 🙂🙏🎶🎸

Thanks @koendb. I think I could say the same about your approach to your builds. I think you're attention to detail is a bit more advanced than mine.....

We've had many a holiday over on the West @robin......on the Kyle and Kintyre, Bute, Arran.....even the summer isle before it was all poshed up..........

Yeah @boo. I find everyone else needs me to do something during my precious guitar building time. 🤣 🎸🎶🙏🙂

I'm up in Strathearn @robin. I left Falkirk many moons ago and went to the Big Smoke. Came up here about 26 years ago. Still come down for the footbal...

Cheers @robin. It has been an epic journey. You never know..... maybe, one day, I'll bring it down to show you. 🎸🎶🙏🙂

Then I started shaping the neck flush with the fretboard. 🙂🙏🎶🎸

Then it's glued on 🎸🎶🙏🙂

Once the fretboard is in the right position it's held in place with two locating pins. A little bit of sanding to the soundboard between the soun...

Getting the fretboard in place. Using the rule to check its in line. 🎸🎶🙏🙂

Then I glued it in. 🙂🙏🎶🎸

Keep checking the angle and straightness against the centre line. 🎸🎶🙏🙂

It's almost impossible to get it right first time so a few wee adjustments by gluing on some veneers. 🙂🙏🎶🎸

Using a straight edge and neck angle jig to get it straight and at the correct neck angle 🎸🎶🙏🙂

Now a bit of refinement of the dovetail joint to get an accurate fit. First I created a small chamfer along the edges. Then fine adjustment of t...

Good to see you back in action @boo. Lovin' the whisky stain idea. Hope you're enjoying your life up here. 🎸🎶🙏🙂
