    Neck 99% done.

    Dot inlays, check.
    Polish fret board to 2500 grit W&D, check.
    Speed humps...errr... Frets, check.
    Initial fret level, check.
    Carve neck profile and sand to 400grit, check.

    Just needs bone nut, fret crown and finish applied...

    I will let it sit in the workshop for a few days before I hit it with grain fillers and sealer.
