Default Neck Joint Inserts and Neck Layout

First up, Larry drills the neck and installs the hardware for the neck bolts. Next, a series of shots detailing the layout of final neck profile on the raw neck blank.

The neck block and heel are drilled together to ensure proper alignment.





Note the threaded insert to be cranked into the tenon, along with epoxy.






Here is the layout on the neck blank.

The first cut is the deepest...cutting the head angle.



The pencil is mightier than the saw.

You're longing to be
But it all comes out on the inside
Eventually
