Oh, man. Glad your finger is as ok as it could be after that kind of incident. Routers are scary things

It's been way too long since I've updated this!
Progress really speaks for itself:

Control cavity is next, and I also have a plan to fix up the botched ferrule holes - more on that later.

Just caught up on this and hope the left hand digits are healing properly and that you won't need to learn how to play left handed and re-string everything upside down.
All things considered, I've gotten off pretty lightly:Quote:

The keloid on my index finger is the most problematic. With any kind of pressure, it hurts. Hoping it will improve with time.

Control cavity is routed, with one minor mishap when the template went for a wander.

My double sided (my phone _really_ wants to auto correct that to double stuffed D:) tape has let me down so I relented to tacking the template down where the scratch plate will hide it. Thankfully, the scratch plate will also hide my patch job.
I was all set to start wiring, but my brain is goo. So a mock build instead:

Can't wait to lose that ugly protective film!

Looks cool man
Stunning! Hopefully it still works out as a no cost build after the Medicare rebate [emoji16] in all seriousness looking the biz though mate!
Really liking the shape of the body. Makes me think of a cross between an SG and a Jazzmaster.
More progress.
Here's something I love about my Marlique - it has a strat-style plug socket inset upside down on the tail edge. So I decided to test out my dremel skills:

I roughed it out, and then used the old marker trick to identify high points.

It's not the prettiest underneath, but it works:

I've also drilled the wiring holes:

And lastly, I'm working backwards a bit, but in case I ever decide to make some brothers and sisters for this particular beast, I thought it would be prudent to make a template from it:
