Right ... think I'll make me some neck blanks ...
Reading left to right, that's 3x sycamore, 4x sapele/mahogany, 2x walnut, 1x maple. That's a thick piece of maple too.
The plan is to make up some laminated 3 piece neck blanks ... sycamore-walnut-sycamore, sapele-maple-sapele ... that sort of thing. If I get really adventurous, I may try adding some veneer layers between the main pieces of wood too ... but I'll concentrate on getting the basic blanks right first.
Should yield me 40-odd blanks with some careful cutting, thicknessing and planing.
Will also yield me enough wood shavings to keep the wood fire going for a few nights.
