Guitar Making

I got my new Stewmac Fret Scale Rules in the mail yesterday so I cut the slots on a couple fretboards with my new fret slotting jig. I just tape the scale to the back of the fret board, and then I align it with the reference line on the jig. I use magnifying reading glasses so I can get everything lined up accurately. The second photo is the view from above when I'm aligning everything before I make the cut.







The lighter colored one is East Indian Rosewood, and it'll go on the rosewood parlor guitar (the "build off" guitar). The darker one is ebony and it will go on the cocobolo parlor.
