Well I've done a little more work on the project today.
Finally got a round to drilling the neck mounting holes and recesses for the ferrules.
Not sure what I was worried about for these, went extremely well, even with just the hand drill in the drill guide.
Might use the drill presses at work to drill the neck though. And need to visit the big green shed to get some new screws to attach the neck the ones I have are about 3mm too long. Wont poke through the finger board, but will definitely go into it, a little shorter is on the cards.
Should I drip a little CA glue in the body holes to harden the wood a little? This is a Bunya pine body. Feels slightly stronger than the basswood bodies I have, but I'm never quite sure about pine.
