Busy day today...... 1st, rough cut the neck on the band saw.Then carve like a demon!!! the neck is now 95% done, with the bolt on tenon sorted , frets on (but not trimmed) and fret marker in 5mm Mother of Pearl in place. And yes they are off to the upper side of the fingerboard, and yes it was intentional!!

A load of sanding, some fret filing, and then I'll be able to spray varnish. I'm aiming to be done on this one by the end of February....... 27 days & counting....... but I have a week out of the workshop during that month too.........
