Why or how would too much drop be a problem on a non angled headstock?
Looking good Muzz, this is fun to watch.

For the tuners closest to the nut, there may be a little too much tension to allow accurate / easy tuning. & if its a very high jump in level the low E & maby the A string just wont hold on the tuning post.
That's it, I would also be worried about a weak headstock.
Tomorrow is a public holiday, I am going to study the diagrams you sent me Paulie and start drawing up the dimensions of the neck, I am thinking 23 frets, just to be different, I think it will also suit this body.
I have wondered the same thing recently and thought of a 4"-5" wide template with each edge being profiled, one for the left side and the other for the right side of the neck. That way there should be enough support for the base of the router.
Liking the shape on this.
The burn marks could be due to the router staying over that area to long.
Yep that's along the lines I was thinking Jaycee , perhaps a truss rod channel route in the template to align it to the neck.
