Ah yes the familiar nervous tension of gluing a set neck. Tick off all that apply:
- "Did I just bump that?"
- "I swear that clamp's moved!"
- "No, I'm imagining things"
- "Did the break angle look that sharp when I mocked up?!?"
- "Is that a drag mark under that clamp?"
- "Oh Sh*t there's glue everywhere!?"
- "Wait, there should be more squeeze out than that, surely??"
- "Its clamped, but I'm not sure that 4 clamps is enough???"
- "Does that neck look like its off to one side?"
- 'Wait, was that the Fish glue, the hide glue, the Titebond or the epoxy?"
- "Why is there lanolin hand cream in this glue bottle?!"
- "20 minutes clamping time, I'll just give it an extra hour. Two Hours. 6 hours. Overnight. Screwit, A week."
- "it's been 2 weeks, maybe I'll just crack a clamp and see?"

Etc, etc.
