Nearly the whole day to myself today so a fair old bit done.

I routed out the binding channel front & back then started working on the neck joint.

I got to the point of the neck actually being on the guitar, but there's a lot of fine tuning to do, intricate carving that'll need me to sharpen my chisels......

still, now it looks a little bit more like a guitar!!


Other tinkering at the cello got the scarf joint cut & glued on the headstock and the body wings glued on. I plan to use the wagner Saf-T-Planer to lower the top of the thru neck to match the rest of the top.. right now it looks like one of Bo Diddly's rectangle guitars!!
