Re: how to copy a neck vid
Nice video and idea for getting the shape copied! On the subject of necks, (maybe you've done this already) it would be of interest to have a video on how to carve the back of neck/head/volute area. I notice that Martin models this area with some variability. I've done two so far with good results, but it is really intimidating. Seeing others' approach would be good.

Re: how to copy a neck vid
Great video John! I have a Martin with a low oval I like and this help out! I'm wondering, how thin can I go on the profile without the neck snapping under tension?

It depends
I have not seen strings snap one but I have seen truss rods go through
I will post some neck specks later I have them somewhere
