12" is the WINNER! Look for a new video soon detailing the conversion of this 9.5" radius to a 12" as well as the next item you'll be voting for.

have you ever thought of stainless steel frets?

[smbstressfest]

I'll discuss the fretwire once the voting is over for the fingerboard radius and I make the video showing the fingerboard leveling procedure.

Compound. Just for fun!

[smbstressfest]

Who's fun... yours or mine?

[damienl]

Mine, it would be educational to see it done. Although I think the 12"'ers are gonna win the vote

[smbstressfest]

It looks that way now, but things could change suddenly.

I plan on explaining how I do a compound radius, as well as why I don't want to for this particular job once the voting is closed and I begin the actual work on the neck.
