So I'm starting at the top and working my way down (that's what she said).
Fortunately the biggest drillbit I have is just the right size for the tuning peg holes.
Figure I'd chop off the top and have 4 strings on one side and two on the other. Sawed this with a slightly rusty coping saw. Fixed up lumpy bits with some 80 grit sand paper. Finished off with 1200 grit and topped off with some tung oil on the newly cut bits.
Rounded the top off and kept a similar line for the angle off the curve. Wasn't sure how much to take off so I drew some random lines, walked away and back a few times, then bit the bullet.
Guitar jigsaw. The project that keeps giving.
Just quietly, for an IT guy, I'm pretty happy with this. Looks freaking adorable. The baby Yoda of guitar heads.
Next step... out with the chainsaw for some body work!!! Brooom maroooom!!!
