MzI Posted May 18, 2004 Report Share Posted May 18, 2004 hyunsu, why do you let your necks sit for 2 to 3 weeks?? is it to let the set and become stable in relation to the shaping of the wood, i have never heard of doing that bfore, maybe my ignorance seems like a good idea though, is it ok to go without letting it sit that time period MzI Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
