Learning how to build an electric guitar

To be able to rout a straight line on the left, I need to make a little jig. I used a piece of the left over plywood I made my bench out of because it's 3/4" thick. First I need a template to transfer the shape.

I cut the paper out with an exacto. Then tape that and trace on the plywood. Cut that out with the band saw.

Took me 2 tries. But with that in the large area and taped down, I routed the remaining 1/4" through to the front.

And we're through!
