Groan. So many ways you can ruin a headstock doing this. I really miss the woodworkers club I was in at the last house.... They had some great scroll saws.. And they make quick and clean work of headstock slots. Not like using a router - where disaster is rolling at 25,000 rpm. |

Last one I did on a milling machine. Doesn't get much easier than that. Unfortunately I traded off the milling machine |

John, nice pics, but it would be nice if you could increase the resolution or size a little. Every time I try to zoom in to see that gorgeous wood it just looks like a big Fuzz. Thanks! |

Are they still out of whack when you click the thumb nails and it takes you to the Postimage site? |

Ok so in Tapatalk on my mobile device, it just blows the thumbnail up and is not even really viewable. But on desktop, it takes me to the hosting site where they are big and I can see much better. However they still tend to be out of focus somewhat where you cant see the detail all that good. |

I will have to take credit for the sharp perfect focus of all the junk on my bench and the blurry pictures of the guitar. If I can get my toes in the picture - will that help. |

Cool! I'm jealous. If I ever get my dang shop done then I could get back to the guitar project............. |

Here's the guitar being played at our regional Teen Talent competition. The new owner Jacob came in first in his age bracket for instrumental. He is one talented kid. |
