Reply to Airbrush for Sunburst? Is it a thing?
Thank you, Lars! I do own a small air compressor, but the tank is on the small side. I suppose it could keep up with the fairly minimal air demands of a small detail gun. The point about keeping the air pressure at a sufficiently high level to permit good atomization of the sunburst pigment spray is well taken. Thank you again for your response.…

Reply to "Angle, center, elevation"...how to close this gap in the neck?
Here is an SOP I wrote when working at a big name shop. I hope this helps out, read thoroughly and go in this order. Your gap could be a few things.
Here is a brief description of how to manipulate the dovetail while fitting a neck.
The pitch measurement is taken with a straight edge in the center of a straight fingerboard, projecting this…

I don’t think the other two did make it into the repository, but in my case, once I have the support in place I can imagine how those template pieces should work.

"Angle, center, elevation"...how to close this gap in the neck?
[ The majority of my learning has come from the Blues Creek Guitars YouTube videos and reading books (i.e. no mentor/formal training). ]
