So I started doing the shaping of the 12 string head-stock.
This was my starting point. I had the initial head-stock with the pencil marks for a rough guide.
I put the neck all set up ready for me to shape it as I please :)
I've taken an edge off the point to help with the pointing of the curve at the top left.
I also rounded off the left-hand bottom point to improve the aesthetics a bit. It was all too square. I decided to "ball" the corner as it just seemed to flow better.
Same goes with the right-hand bottom corner.
I thought at this point I'd show you how I pointed the top point and was getting ready to do the big work on the 6-string, however .... I decided all the things saying to wear safety goggles might not be a complete waste of time, as I ran to the bathroom to wash out my eyes.
I'll stop here until I get my eyes protected. Will look great when it's done .... promise :D
