Doing Things Wrong

So Far, So Good

I started assembling the Mosrite, finally. The routs are all so precise that I had to spend quite a while filing polyurethane out of them to make the neck and pickups fit again. Then I had to chisel out the pit for the output jack. You can see my solution for grounding the four individual bridges - a strip of aluminum tape, the same stuff as on the back of the dry-erase pickguard.

And it all fits together, and I'm going to bed. I'll assemble the neck tomorrow.

This is what a pound and a half of sawdust looks like. You'd be surprised how fast you can make it. This little vacuum, set up to be ultra-convenient, is worth its weight in gold. The vacuum is basically integrated into the workbench, so it is always handy. Both belt sanders have quick hookups.
