    He might just be cleaning up the edges and / or the fillet on the bottom of the axe.

    Nah he never got it, I did it all myself, found there was an ethernet line running up the stairs so I just tapped into it

    EDIT Hey can we have the strikethrough BBcode enabled here? I can't make the post as how I wanted it to look...

    Just the profile, Woks.
    Got a big ass pattern router bit that is 65mm long. Big enough to do the profile in one pass, saves a lot of messing around on the bobbin sander....

    There is always a workaround for glitches, mistakes and other Guitar building gremlins.....

    Looking good DB. The pattern router bit sounds scary, take care!

    Been a while, but with building jigs, Christmas etc etc this build has been a bit slow.

    Now waiting for a few specialist toys to arrive so I can do me some funky carving on the Quilted Maple top.
    When I get this done, I can get onto finessing the neck join and generally going mental on the build.

    Meanwhile, I have been testing the jigs I built on the Bass that I may or may not be building...........
