Also ive seen guitars where the neck cavity connects up with the bridge pup cavity is this 4 a through body neck or can you use this idea four a bolt on?

Im soryy im new 2 this & im just wondering what is the fret board side of the nut?

Im assuming its the side with the fret markers on it.

24", 24.75", 24.66", 24.9", 25", 25.4", 25.5"....all of these fall into the category of 'common scale length'.

Buy Melvyn Hiscock's book 'Make Your Own Electric Guitar'. Understand scale length. Understand neck angle (Perry's pinned tutorial in the tutorials section will help). Understand the basic concepts of radiussing, levelling, fretting, dressing, and setup. Once you comprehend the guitar's playing surface (ie, fretboard, frets, spacing, compensation, necessary/desired angles between all the parts), design the rest of the guitar around it. Otherwise you'll be embarking on a GLO build (Guitar-like object), rather than a guitar build (ie, a tool for making music).

The scale of my neck of my neck is 25.5" just so everyone knows

That is cool, now figure out what type of bridge you want to use. Then you will have the info you need to start figuring this out

Im using a Bigsby B5 bridge with a Gotoh stop tailpiece.
