Talk about doing things the hard way...
yes minimum machinery used in the build. We used to cut the CBG necks by handsaw then bought a bandsaw ! so much easier !
He turns out some nice guitars. I watched a few of his vidieos, he's got some chops with that hand saw. Who needs CNC machinery when you have a sharp handsaw and a chisel.
He has a great way to make a template for a neck slot. I will find that vid again and post a link, it's easier just to see it rather than trying to explain.
Here is the one where he uses epoxy to make templates.

To quote the funniest line in John Carpenter's 1982 classic The Thing:
"You gotta be #*%^ing kidding..."
That proves DB's mantra- there's always a way....
