Not sure if I’ll make some progress next week, because I have to learn for a Microsoft exam on Friday, but I now only need to clean up the joint under the nut, file in the truss rod access cavity and then, I’m ready to cut out the neck! I might glue in the rods before I do that, but it’s going to be fun .
