Wow, that is a lot of work. Looks fine, I won't build one, so if in need I will call you.

Body is basically done glued together and the overhangs rounded.
Now on to the neck.

Starting to carve the neck.
Most of the waste wood bandsawed away. Just about ready to tackle the scary part......THE SCROLL!

It is an art, especially when carved in hard maple.
Kevin, show us!

I've started carving the scrolls. This is not too difficult but for me it's been hard to visualize the turns and such.
Looking at lots of pictures of scrolls.
Next is to carve reliefs in the turns to give a dimensional effect. Wish me luck!
