I like the Dremel follower idea!
Looking very good.

Thanks Simon. Progress on spraying has slowed due to two weeks of crappy weather. It's definitely getting there though and probably good for the initial can and half of clear to cure a bit.
Got the frets in today. Went pretty well. As much as I like being able to say I built the necks from scratch, the time and messing around don't really make much sense with pretty much the same thing available from Pitbull for ~$80. I'd really like to do some more unique inlays and neck work, but I'll need to invest in some better equipment to get to that stage.
Oh and my 'Mr Sparkle' sticker rocked up with a few others as it's cheaper the more you buy. Redbubble.com.au if anyone is after any.

Cheers. Shame about that dark blob in the wood that revealed itself.

Really nice work, and don't mind the dark blob at all, just a bit of character.

Finally some decent weather to spray in. Body is getting close now. Still a ways off, new job and various other pressures are eating a lot of time.

Reminds me of a very expensive kitchen worktop (meant in the nicest possible way).
Should come up absolutely fantastic when polished.
Nice work. I was just wondering about the MDF cap on this one yesterday, in relation to my many projects. The evidence suggests it’s going ok so far.
