I have got most of the parts required, only a few minor things still to come like binding.

It starts with a one piece poplar blank.

Your neck is for Lefty-Player!!

The grain of the body looks awesome. I hope you don't cover it with any coating.

The ebonising lacquer was not what I hoped :-( you can still grain but it's stained a uniform black:(!

Trial fit before the wax finish.

Can be dangerous. I lost 20cm of beard when it got tangled in an augur bit :O!

Drill stopped as my chin hit the steel, thankfully it had a reverse gear : D
