John and Ken, I
I appreciate the feedback. I'll work on it from this end. I can click the links to each of the three photos and each one comes up fine on my phone. This is just a learning curve on my end I'm afraid.
Best regards,
Kim

Re: Needing Advice-My first Acoustic Neck
Without pictures I can't offer informed advice, but generally a board like that is slab cut. So the lamination is made with book matched pieces to get the best vertical grain convergence pattern. Adding a contrasting stripe will look nice. Forget the scarf joint. Make your billet/blank about 25x4x4

Re: Needing Advice-My first Acoustic Neck
Ken, as you can see in my Attached photos (I hope they are there now) that your assumption is spot on. The board is slab sawn and I have enough width to make a mirror image for lamination with a third contrasting stripe.

Re: Needing Advice-My first Acoustic Neck
By my calculation you should easily get 3 necks from that piece.

Re: Needing Advice-My first Acoustic Neck
Tim, I'd be content to just get one and move my project along.
