More neck and fingerboard work

The quarantine and the Easter break allowed for more time to work on the guitars. I spent a lot of time working on the necks and fingerboards. I installed the inserts in the neck and drilled corresponding holes in the heel block (in the body) to attach the neck. Then I had lots of tweaking and measuring and adjusting to make sure everything was aligned correctly. Then I built a jig to cut the fingerboard taper. Once that was done it was time for a final fitting and then gluing the fingerboard onto the neck. I did not glue this directly onto the body as I figured I would need to be able to remove it down the road.
