Hi Frankie, just caught up on past few month's progress and impressed with how it is coming along. That fretboard looks awesome.Originally Posted by FrankenWashie
Some very tentative clear coat sanding
I think you can see why

Thanks Waz, pretty happy with how it came up. Cutting the nut shelf down this evening was fun though, taking a chisel to an almost completed custom Ebony fretboard. It made me a tad bit uncomfortable.

Looks like it needs a few more coats...
Yeah, that’s what I get for not flattening before clear. Ah well, it gives me something to do and keeps Igor out of morgues.

I'd let Igor do the flattening work. After all, he is the body expert.
All good stuff.
That clear coat sanding would make me very, very nervous. It's looking really fantastic though

Cheers John, I was mindful of the decals and the step between the colour borders so it had better than a can and a half of clear on it before I went near it with sand paper.

Mmm sharp chisels like cutting fingers
