Neck Fitting Tute and Pics

Post by Hesh1956 » Tue Dec 18, 2007 2:09 pm

I threw this together for the OLF because there are a lot of beginners there but I thought that you folks might find it somewhat interesting.

Gawd, if this is what you deem to be thrown together, I would really love to see one that you took your time and thought about it. It would be a Treatise. Thanks for another great tutorial.

Thanks for all the work on that Hesh. Wish I'd seen it on build one. Would have saved me heaps of grief. I picked up a few tips that I'm going to try on my next build.

Hesh,
This is standard practice for me, except I use a chisel to undercut the heel.
What is impressive, is your knack for explaning this process in such a clear and concise way. Simple but thorough discription. Great job!
