A followup on the failed binding and some cleanup of that. I also cut out a radius gauge for helping with the back of the neck shape. Also, I fair up the shape of the headstock some more - knowing i'm not quite done, yet.

This episode starts with checking the fretboard mounting.
Then I begin shaping the neck to the templates at the 1st and 12th.
Next I shape the rest of the neck and heel bout.
Finally, drill the tuning machine holes and clean up the headstock.

It's time to start tests for headstock inlay. I wasn't pleased with the fretboard binding after shaping the neck - so i decide to remove what's there using the CNC and then reinstall the binding after that. Finally, more headstock inlay tests start...

First we see the results of the neck re-binding. Stick on the end binding. Then clean up the binding. Also, more headstock inlay tests - this time with a new material. Then we re-drill and install the side markers and true that up. Also some more fret slot cleaning. Almost ready for frets!

Headstock inlay test results. And a monumental phase, it's time to start testing colors for the finish! This episode is the first half of all my color testing adventures. Big doings!
