Kevin - got a pic of the business end of that drill stock?

[Herman]

Yes Kevin, I tried that one. But in some way I could not make the slanted bit cut nice. So I turned to another procedure. Well, again, there are several ways to Rome.

there are several ways to Rome.

And several ways to skin a cat IN Rome. Not everyone knows that....lol

[John Parchem]

you have more ways to Rome than I do, I first have to take a plane or I suppose a boat.

The dovetail was routed the usual way. Taking in account the steeper neck angle. The neck surface is in line with a 4.8mm /0.19" height at the bridge position.

THAT is a very nicely down routed dovetail joint my friend

[Herman]

Thanks mate
