Neck drawings

I may have missed something, among all the excellent threads around here.
There are all sorts of body templates and drawings, but I cannot find tele or strat neck drawings with a full set of measurements???

Thats better than the one I was using. I am due for a new template after my last router mishap.

Thanks nosmo. I've been looking for one of those too! Thanks Aurora for asking! :lol:

Don't thank me - thank jpturbo. That's on the 'D-Size Tele Body Blueprint Files HERE' sticky/thread.

Thanks Josh!! I must have made each of those measurements a 1000 times!

That's fantastic. Suddenly I see myself having some necks, or at least some templates CNC'ed.

Well, - on behalf of all - Thanks, Nosmo - and JP !... :razz:
just what we needed!

What about making the truss rod, and all the steps of shaping and cutting fret slots? Also how to install the rod? It seems like it would be a very exacting science to me, and not building a table leg.
Is there a site that shows step by step procedures for someone with very limited tooling?

All of the 2012 TDPRI Build Challenge entries built a neck... with widely varying degrees of tooling!

Edit: JPBTurbo... I somehow missed this drawing until now. Thanks!

Read 2012 the challenge threads. Everybody had to make a neck this year.
