I am curious....after viewing your pictures. Did you recess the neck behind the fretboard (that is between fretboard and bridge)? It then looks like you then angled the neck from the top. I really can't tell but it looks like a better option for me at this point.
Based on my drawing, my neck blank is not going to be thick enough using the method that has been discussed here. I am making an explorish neck through. My neck blank is 2" thick by 3" wide and 46" long. When I use the diagram used above, my measurements for the body portion of the explorer wings falls below the end of the blank. If what I'm seeing in the pictures you have posted is what I think; this may be a better way to go for me.
Draw your neck/body angle, THEN draw in the 2" thickness to match the body line. EG: you'll be cutting the NECK at an angle, not the body. See my other pinned thread on how to cut the angle, for an example.
I need to make sure that we are on the same page. I used the drawing you had posted in your thread. After drawing the fretboard, frets, nut, bridge location/height and desired string clearance; The bottom of the bridge height is where the body is supposed to be. I drew and angle from the bottom of the fretboard to the bottom of the bridge. I then took a ruler and extended the line back and down another 12" inches behind the bridge location.
After that, I measured a 1/4" down from the angling line and drew in my top. Then I measured down another 1 1/2" to where the bottom of the back will be. Cut out the paper pattern and putting it against my blank's side. The angled portion fits but falls off the bottom portion of the blank; about six inches from the end of the blank. Another words, my blanks thickness would have to be closer to 4" instead of 2".
My understanding of what you are suggesting is that I reverse the direction of what I have drawing; because the thickness of the neck portion will be later be made narrower? Or are you saying use my existing drawing and twist it on the wood so that the neck/fretboard portion of the drawing is angling toward what would be the headstock?
