    Routed out the control cavity, pup cavity and the neck cavity for both bodies. Also drilled out the jack socket recess, the channels linking the pup cavity to the control cavity, and the bridge ground to the control cavity.

    I did a lot better job of the bridge ground by making a little jig - a block of wood with a drilled hole at the correct angle (basically a pocket hole jig) which I clamped to the body. This stabilized the long drill bit and kept it at the correct angle.
