Sketching inlay ideas.

 Still working on the bird proportions and layout.  Then on to how to translate that into inlay.

Drawing up a design for the tuning head inlay

The drawing that is nearly it.

Ready to decorate acoustic guitar.

Fretboard attached to the neck

There's a place waiting for this one on the rack...

Fretboard, bridge; Guitar assembly

 Fitting the fretboard onto the guitar, making sure there is a solid fit.


Also looking at the bridge blank and thinking how to cut it so there is enough space to decorate.

Acoustic guitar neck & peghead

 The neck is attached with a dovetail and pulled tight with a furniture bolt.

The peghead design is almost finalized, so some paper mockups will be next to get the proportions and positioning.
