Cutting out the f-holes and contols

 Okay, so I got the top cut out roughly a little whiles ago, now I need to mark out where everything's going and cut the f-holes and controller holes.

 Everything marked out, holes drilled for the switch and the volume/tone pots and starter holes for the f-holes

 f-holes cut out, this was done very carefully as the 4mm spruce likes split and break if you're not careful!

I glued some more of the sycamore veneer to support and brace the holes.  This should help to stop the spruce from splitting under vibration and will support it where the control components get fastened.

All done and I'm really liking the look of this, I can't wait to get it glued on to the body...
