Attach the neck before or after

I'm sure the answer to this question is probably here on the forum somewhere but can't seem to find it. I am getting ready to finish with deft rattle cans having pore filled with Zpoxy. Can somebody please give me a basic pro/con explanation of attaching the neck to the body before or after spraying...

Re: Who is using Zpoxy for pore filling and why?

Hi John, what do you use to dilute the Zpoxy for that final coat.

Slotted head tuner jig

I've just arrived at the stage of my second kit build where I need to drill for the tuners on slotted head steel string guitar. I see that Stew offers a good looking but costly jig for the job. Any ideas for building one for myself?

Thanks in advance,
Chris

CA glue for rosette

Looking for the right glue to glue an abalone rosette. Most of what I've seen sets up real fast. Is there a specific type of hot stuff that has a longer set up time?

Thanks, Chris
