You can kind of see it here,

I think this is the flush trim bit I used,

I already had the roundover/beading bit so it was a cheap solution to cutting the binding channel. However with a router table one could set something up like this,

Then you could use a standard 1/4" or 1/2" straight cut bit.

Thanks, Not sure if I'll finish in time before the end of the challenge. I'm trying to pack the house up to move across town and get ready for the new baby that's due on May 24th. I will finish this but it might be in the Tele Home Depot forum.

Building a Telecaster ain't like dusting crops, boy!

Without precise calculations we could misplace a fret, or sand through the finish and that would end this challenge real quick wouldn't it.

Maybe he wants her to confess her true feelings for him...

Could Quigon be considered a stuck up, half-witted, scruffy-looking Nerf herder?

I'm not really sure.
I don't have time to discuss this in a committee.

When reading upside down and backwards, the word "this", in that font, looks a little like something else at a glance....
