I clamped everything together to see what it looks like. (front view) |

Using the example in Siminoff book, I built a jig to glue the neck to the body. |
 |
Here's a closer view of the jig. |
 |
After lots of sanding, I started staining the instrument. I used curly maple enhancer, then yellow maple (which was more orange), then red maple. This is how it looked! Yuck!! Time for sandpaper again! |
 |
I sanded, restained (using an airbrush)and started scraping the binding. I'm getting close! |
 |
Another picture, |

and one more. A little more scraping, and it's ready for lacquer. |
