Shaping the neck















I wasn't sure of the peghead shape, so I experimented a little. Picture 1, the slab head.

















Picture 2, I used masking tape to put pencil marks to show the shape I was thinking of.

















Picture 3, I started using a hand coping saw but the wood was so hard I would have been hours cutting it. So, as I thought of a curvy shape, I used a jigsaw.
















Picture 4, the rough shape.
