G-day
so to start of a new build we begin with slamming 2 bits of QLD wood together in a fookoff big jaws of death,
been drawing for a few hours now so this is the plan!
since the Camphour Tele is no more, I decided to use some ideas from there into this one in memory of a good guitar!
so Squirly is now being born!
the curved surface in prep "roughCut"
fitting the trem flush with the deck so went through a few test cuts in some scrap pine and found the golden numbers
Oh, liking the look of this! If it's not too awful a question, what happened to the Camphor Tele?
"Music is in the air; it's my job to pull it out."- Jaco Pastorius
the owner of the donated wood decided it wasnt donated anymore, so not to bow down to money grabbers I decided give his wood back
Must go to sleep!!!!
but here we go before we flip the stock over and cut all the bottom pockets
great cnc work there, looks good!

Sooooo
the underside pockets completed so doing a curved surface as well there....will cut it out tonight if i have time
nice clean lines and looks
exactly what was in my mind!
getting closer to the truth!
Friggin awesome.
I don't think I've ever seen controls back behind the bridge like that before. Great idea.
Thanx!
and no screws on the face at all! I dig that part, Actualy am moving the jackplug input to the back as well behind the centre tone knob area, so will be making a little plug for that hole in the front OOPS!
it will be fine just gonna cut a slug out the grain in the stock just behind it and fill it with that..i thought of the placement but forgot I had already drilled the face...oh well next time less haste!
