i built and donated one last year for the raffle, and figured i could use some good karma, and do another one this year. i will be purple again (the survivor color), also with purple inlays. here are some foto's so far:
since my laser cutter is not set up yet i'll have to cut these inlays the old way with a dowel cutting bit.
the inlays installed in the fingerboard, and truss rod installed in the neck.
fingerboard glued on. tile setter's use these little wedges , and i like them for making sure the fretboard/neck blank joint is tight. plus glue doen't stick to them.
the neck with the side dots glued. also the roughed out body.
