Sorry to keep you all waiting for so long, but the slow pace is killing me too.. last weekend I finally had time to work on the bass for a little longer, but, of course, I got ill…

Today I threw a rail jig together to plane the peghead veneer down to 2 mm. No complications this time, but no pictures either (cell phone battery died). I routed it from the top using the enlarged router base plate I made for the scarf joint jig. Looks good and can’t wait to proceed with the neck.

Next I’ll plane the headstock down before glueing the scarf joint. After that the veneers and then onto the rods.
