Inlaying the neck
Yesterday and today I was able to drill out the recesses for the inlay on the fingerboard. Today I put in the inlay and was able to sand everything down to 600 grit. Tomorrow, I'll polish it up to 12,000 grit (not 1,200) install the frets, and glue the fingerboard to the neck. On Wednesday I'll have only enough time to glue the walnut veneer to the peg head. Then on Thursday, I'll start shaping the neck and cutting out the peg head design. But the end of this weekend, I hope to have everything except the dowel stick install finished. Below are some pictures from the inlay.
