Oak body tele with an ash neck.

So after making the template and cutting out the neck my neck is a little thin. It measures 2.18 at the neck pocket. And around 1.71 at the nut. Is that too thin or will that be even noticeable from a playing point of view. I'm sure after sanding it will be closer to 2.16-2.17 and 1.69-1.70:

 

Here's a picture of it. I'd hate to remake the template.

 

Thank you. I figuared there were variances. I figuared guy probably had different preferences. It sure isn't easy to get the template perfect.

 

Does anyone know if the the compound radius fretboards from stewmac use a flat bottomed nut or radiused bottom nut. I'm also seeing that the fretboard is a 10in radius at the nut. But I'm not seeing a preslotted nut with a 10in top radius.
Should the nut radius match the fretboard.

 

Well I got some firewood.

 

I'm not giving up. I just don't trust repairing ash.

 

Ya that's how I was doing it. Measured the neck center to three inch away from the rail but i must not have clamped it tight enough. I think the bit grab the wood and pulled the neck loose out of the clamps.

 

The worst part is my fretboard, nut and dye are coming In today.

 

I drilled a 1/4 hole every few inches. I was cutting the full 1/4 down though. I'll try shallower passes next time. I'm propably gonna build a jig

 

Man stewmac ships fast. Very pleased with them.
