Nice carve! Did you do those with rasps? They're super smooth for a rough!

Mick- I don't think the Blue would go well with the red and browns, plus trying to keep it from bleeding into unwanted sections would be a nightmare at this point.
Def- I use this guy right here for the bulk of the wood removal : ![]() I get pretty close to my marked lines and then I clean it up with a couple different size sanding blocks and a sharp scraper ![]() Cleaned up the body and got the rear carve done today marked out ![]() and cut ![]() ![]() I'm not happy with the fret board. Using the 8in stewmac radiusing sanding blocks has left me with a board whose thickness varies from one end to the other. Rather then fighting to get it back to where I need it I'm going to take a day to make a router jig and save me a lot of time and frustration in the future. I think I'm going to do a version of this:

Awesome build. The anchor and chain inlay on the body look really great.

![]() I'd happily commission you to build my guitar. If I had the money... Anyway, looking absoluely awesome so far. IMO not using a really dark transparent blue is sacrilege though.

Hey guys sorry about the hold up, been workin on some other stuff recently. I'm not satisfied with the neck and fretboard so I decided to redo both of them to hopefully get better results.
Heres the new fret board I made using the fretboard radiusing jig I found on youtube. ![]() ![]() ![]() Once off the jig you still need to clean up the surface with the radiused hand block but it takes less then 5 minutes, compared to the hour it took to shape everything by hand. ![]() ![]() ![]()

This is looking really really awesome. Also, thanks for the link to that radiusing jig, that'll come in very handy!
Can I ask whats happening with the part of the anchor that's missing?
