That's a real beauty. Very nice job. I like how you modified Ken's binding jig as well. Each time I have to route binding channels, I consider upgrading to his other system, but then I look at my original KMG jig and recall how well it has served me for 10 guitars and an ukulele, and I save my money. Great tool that has paid for itself many times over. I got it as part of my success kit 3 or 4 years ago and I have used it for every guitar since.
Nice work modifying the shape of the guitar too. I like it a lot.

Thanks. You could build a tower pretty easy. Really the only thing you would have to buy is a decent set of drawer slides (and the pulley to counter balance but you could use rubber bands for that as well). My hands were a little to unsteady to keep things where I wanted with the original setup. I love the modified one, its really easy to dial in.
