    Assign them all a number, then throw two darts at a standard dartboard, the sum is the number you start on. Or use a random number generator.

    @ Simon, Neck pocket routed, realised that the bridge post locations were out for the scale length on my pine test piece so just making adjustments for that. Dialed in the neck depth and (thanks to your masking tape suggestion) it sits perfectly tight and central.

    @Dedman, they said I was mad, MAD, MAAAAD I TELL YOU! Maw hahahahahahahahahHAHAHAHAHA!

    Actually you are quite right, the only other area that gets me any where near as nervous is the drilling of the bridge anchor holes
