Still following along, it's starting to look like a guitar!
Two questions I haven't been able to figure out:
What does beveling the lining do? I realize it's partly for historical accuracy, but figure there must be some reason it was done..
How would you have cut the ends on the bottom to get a zero error cut line if you hasn't trimmed the one a bit to short? It seems that that would require some other jig so you could cut them both at once somehow..
The beveling, i believe, is about lightening. I'm not an expert so maybe there are other reasons, but I think it's a weight thing.
Some of the more experienced guys may be able to tell ya better ... a good accurate template would probably be ideal - one that's already sized for the right length, maybe.
I'll have to build a whole bunch more before i can claim any expertise on it, and even then who knows!
