first try at dovetail neck joint
This is my first try at a tapered blind dovetail neck joint. I have a pretty good book with photos and directions, but I'm having a problem it doesn't cover. I routed the joint till the neck was about 5/16" proud of the body, then stared working it down with sanding sticks. I've got it down flush with the body, more or less, but one side of the neck is higher than the other, in other words it has a little twist. If I take wood off the dovetail on one side, it swings the neck in that direction. Taking wood off the shoulders adjusts neck angle, but where do I remove wood to straighten the twist? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Danny Gray
