Aloha Braddah Randy! Nice job being precise….I am the same way and when I do a project of any kind, the set up takes FORRR-E-VERRRR….but the job goes rather quickly, all because my prep is being precise in my measurements. I enjoyed all the videos thus far and subscribed after watching the neck jig video. The others I’ve seen previous to yours all have their merit but the pencil lead outlining the bearing cog was genius! Mahalo nui loa for sharing your valuable time with us that are interested in this because it is not always easy doing a video production with a lot of detail and insert notations, etc….Mike
Nice one Randy. I made a centre finder jig for routing the truss rod channel (clamp it to the neck blank and the palm router rides on top). I can't use it on a neck that's already tapered. I'm smacking my head because it never occurred to me to make it adjustable for a tapered workpiece.
Here’s a link to the gig I made for doing trust rods. It can also be used on already taped necks, I even use this jig for dot inlay centering. ua-cam.com/video/ZKu2D-lE6YM/v-deo.htmlsi=clESgLWc9SpDeMS5
@@randysguitarsbroncos223 Thanks. I like the accuracy you get with that process. Today i ended up mounting a shelf in the neck shaping jig i've been trying to get working (that's another story) and using tape to stick down a neck blank and route the truss rod cavity. If i keep using that method i think i'll do as you did with a centre-marked alignment block and a screw system to center the workpiece.
Yes, that’s right. Bought a 1 x 4 x 8‘ piece at the exotic lumber yard near me, cut my own fretboards, going to make a neck out of it and still have a little bit left

Great video. Very informative.
@@zairecavazos4756 Thanks 😊
@@randysguitarsbroncos223 I've built a few through trial and error. Making my own jigs and templates. Wish I had this video when I first started.

The fretboard..... Wenge?
