got some more work done yesterday. Drilled all the wiring holes, had a close call and almost drilled outside of the control cavity and the hole came out the recess - close call !
Grain filled the back and sanded the covers flat. Got holes for the covers drilled and countersunk.
Cut the neck pocket to suit the curved neck plate. Also got the neck pretty well shaped. Hard work with the files but it's rewarding.
Now all that's left is final body sanding and should be ready for stain or clearing.
