So, today I glued my neck..No, not the one hooked to my body. I glued five pieces of wood together for my guitar neck, I think it is going to look awesome. I used a combination of three different woods, I think they look great together.
I thought it sounded like a really good idea to use a four inch foam roller brush to apply the glue, however, I think that squirting the glue on and spreading it with a popscicle stick would have been just as good, if not better. Oh well, I had the foam roller already so it was no loss.
After gluing up the boards I decided to make a homemade fretboard sander, i made a ten inch radius sanding board, was a very easy project and very accurate.
I'm very eager to take the clamps off tomorrow and clean off the glue and true up the boards. Then if I understand correctly, I need to start on my fretboard..woohoo, fun fun fun.
