Neck Angle Calculator

Alright, i found this on the net... should end a lot questions on these forums!

Neck angle calculator

and remember that you should put a *little* more angle since you can raise most bridges (or not? lol )

there =D

Very,very cool.

Not only can you calculate what the neck angle should be, you can play around with the parameters to see what changing each one will do to the angle before actually drawing the plan out again.

I have a couple of questions though:

For the fret number where the neck joins body, do you go by the join on the treble or bass side of the neck if the cutaways are different?

I assume that the height of the fingerboard at neck join is measured from the top surface of the FB to the top surface of the lam/top at the level of the fret in the first question. Is that right? Should that height remain constant from there to the end of the FB?

Thanks in advance,

Brian.

In conjuntion with an Inclinometer and Myka's Neck Pocket Jig i'd say this would be the best way to go about making a neck angle
