A new year and progress





So, I've returned from a hiatus from instrument making. I found this gorgeous piece of mahogony at the local Woodcraft. I decided to get onto the headstock. As you can see, I am using a slotted headstock. The tuners will be added upside down to allow for easy access.

I took the dimensions from the SketchUp "Virtual build" and laid it out. Much easier than I had thought. Nice to have a Stanley #100 plane and sharp chisels. Next........The end block.
