Proteus build thread (uber-tele)

[CTN]

Well I decided to start oiling the neck at the same time as I start working on the finish for the body so I can set both pieces on the same finishing schedule, more or less.

In the meantime, I finished the rough shaping of the contoured heel and rear of the lower horn. I had to make a jig to rout the neck heel at 6 degrees and then I used my dremel to blend in the surrounding areas. I used the warmoth contoured heel dimensions (on my jolly roger strat) as a rough guide.

I still have to clean up the tooling marks and blend in some of the edges and slopes a bit better, but here's where I'm at now.
