Updates. Not a LOT of action going on here, but it's still moving forward. Mostly made progress on the case for this thing. Nailed down what I want ...

It is amazing how much more "finished" the body feels after rounding over the edges. Since it's so small, I went with a 7mm edge radius. I started pla...

I know it doesn't look like it, but I'm still working on this. Got the first cover made for the first pickup, and the pickup cavities routed. H...

Never built a pickup before, but here's my first one. 4 poles, 2 Alnico 5 magnets that were meant for a Firebird pickup, arranged the same way a ...

Neck and fretboard are unified. Truss rod is fitted, tuner holes are drilled and screw holes are pre-drilled. Next up is finish profiling the sid...

I see two options. Cut a filler strip from the end of the fretboard that's the right width to fit the slot, (it'll be fragile as heck) and glue it i...

Still no keeper bars, but I should have at least two made by tomorrow evening. After that, it's only the pickup covers left to make, before I could ro...

Made a stack of 4-pole P90 pickup backing plates tonight, I need to order some more bobbins to cut out and I'll make a set of 8 pickups. I need to mac...

Got a little work done on this one this past week. Decided to cut the body out with the bandsaw, instead of using the CNC. I'll finish out this body, ...

Fixed it. Barely any gap there, and what is there will fill out fine when I go to paint the body. (Wish I could get my neck joint...

Well progress was made, but not in the direction I wanted it to go. I got a little carried away on the spindle sander on the tightest curve right next...

Continuing on, the bandsaw makes short work of roughing out the body shape. I actually used two different bandsaws-the big one can't get into the tigh...

Started the second neck, but got a bit impatient and the scarf joint is poorly glued, the nut position is compromised, and I just feel like I've made ...

Well, I didn't loose my house in the storm, but the school I work at took a bit of a hit. The building is fine, but we won't have power or internet se...

I wish the gouges were the only problem. I started double-checking the body template, and looking at my photos posted here. The neck is too short. ...

It definitely could have been worse, I could be getting out the wood bleach to remove bloodstains. Pretty ugly looking, but would be compl...

Well, it happened. I ruined the good progress I'd made on the neck, I was bandsawing out the excess material at the tenon end and the saw caught. It...

I felt really silly though, because the scarf joint is only about 1cm of the tips of the headstock, I could have totally cut this out as a single-piec...
