Its going as fast as I earn money and the more often Cross gets to his workshop, the faster it will get done. ATM its a good balance between his free time and my income.

It costs a lot more money than you'd think, huh? I know mine ended up being pretty pricey.

mumblyjoe

I know its pricey, just my casual job gives little income and only so much goes to guitar.

what's the cost so far? or is that something that is to be kept quiet?

deadonkey

looking very good.

I have a question (i know #### all about woodworking)

how do you hold the router straight to add the channel for the neck binding? Do you need to make a template?

I've only used a router once for routing a control cavity so i dunno how to use one.

CROSS

It's a special router bit, which will only allow the router bit to cut to a certain width.

Good news:

I moved back to my folks house today, which means I have 24hr access to my workshed.

I'll make a special effort to get both Mumblyjoe's and Dunxy's projects finished in a month. Then I can move to the mainland.

johnniespring

luthiered out?

CROSS

I fretted the neck today and yesterday.

It was such hard bloody work, but it came together really well.

The frets haven't been levelled yet.
