Hey Wes, sorry to bombard you with questions here and in another thread, but what is used in the process to laminate the layers together? Something like Titebond III?
Comment by Wes "I'm Baaaaack" Yates on March 20, 2010 at 3:12am
The headstock angle on my builds is more like 13 degrees but you can make it any way you want for sure. I found that an angle if 11-15 degrees is common. 17 to me would be a little much.

Wes, what is the degree of your headstock cut (17 like Gibson)?

Here is really what I like to see in a laminated neck as for the grain pattern

Comment by Wes "I'm Baaaaack" Yates on February 5, 2010 at 3:00am
Here is a pic that shows the neck end grain

Actually Ron, if you want I can send you the CAD file -- Google SketchUp. SketchUp has a viewer if you don't want to download the complete application and its all free. That way you can see it all from different angles.

I am using this design now in a build and have put up pics. Take a look through my albums.

Hi Wes, I'm gettin' ready to build my first neck and love your drawings. But they got cut off and I can't see some of the information. Would you possibly post some more pictures that show all the info?
Thanks,
Ron

Thanks Tres, I have better ones and I have the CAD drawing if anyone needs. Braille wanted to see it. - WY
