More neck work and started thin parts

Progress in the last two days. I made the initial saw cuts on the mahogany neck for SN21 and cut the back and sides out of Canary wood. I've decided since I'm going to build new tooling for this project I might as well build more than one of these at the same time. I cut out the back & sides out of Brazilian Rose Wood for SN22. Found a piece of qtr-sawn cherry for the neck. This neck won't be laminated since it's a 1-3/8 thick qtr-sawn board. I had to glue two pieces together for the heel section. The plan for SN23 is the entire instrument save the soundboard is of Black Walnut.
