Complete post It may not be a big deal to most of us, but some people still on dialup and the bigger the pic, the longer the load. A larger footprint could also mean having to scroll not only up and down, but side to side, and that's a pain in the tooshy. K sorry il resize it and il convert it to a gif for even faster loading I once was on dail-up so i know how it is
-
here's my diagram i think all the measurments are right =) I put 3 times the amount i need for the fretboard because i might mess it up

For the neck if i had one peice of wood that was: 48" long 0.5" thick 5" wide And another peice of wood that was: 48" long 0.5" thick 5" wide And yet another peice of wood that was: 48" long 1" thick 2.5" wide I think that would give me something like this wood (not glued) Wood Glued I think im starting to understand this abit So would those neck measurments work???

erm im confused where could a find a drawing of a simalr bass with measurments? so i can work out how much wood i need also how will i know depth? Oh sorry didnt see your other post on the pervious page Thanks for the help that is what i needed =) K one last question have you got any pictures from projects you have done that maybe show some of what you mean because the neck bit 8 wide ? thats confusing
-

Ya il try check at the airport on the way in otherwise i would always post it over. thanks though im finding this all abit hard to follow lol just reolised i put bolt on neck on my drawing I dont mean to be a pain but could some one lay it out like something like this for me: In inches or what ever (going for 34 scale) Neck height: height: Length: width: Body height: height: Length: width: fretboard height: height: Length: width: just need it in this sort of layout so i can go to a lumber place and easily tell them what sizes of wood i want and see what they got in that sort of size.

this is the rough design if any ones interested I would like to donate to the site because its good but i cant because i lack the funds =(

Inches. Location of bridge is basically equal to scale length(34 inches) string nut to bridge. Read this topic, and use the calculator linked at the end of the topic to find fret locations.Topic Pickup placement is not critical to body shape (may be a factor in the number of frets you use). Sounds like it is a good time to read a good book on building (Melvyn Hiscocks is a good start, and will be great for future referance also). Peace,Rich Thanks i was planning on buying that book just havnt got around to it yet Il read through that topic right now. well i cant find any papper that i would stick together to even make sort of big enough so i think il just do it on the pc for now. thanks again i might need 2 know about more though =) just wondering have u got an example drawing (maybe of a project yuo have done) would make it easyer 2 do mine.

Well i could draw it this weekend its just cutting it very close also i dont know how or where to start dont know fret measurements, distance of bridge from neck, pick-ups ect ect Also what units is that in inches millimeters cenimeters?? you do mean a drawing that is to scale with all the right measurements right?
