Here I've cut the notches to fit the thickness of the cigar box lids. The notches are cut in the boxes to fit the neck and fret boards. I drill sound holes of various sizes using a forstner bit. I apply a bead of glue on the
box and the mahogany and let it sit for an hour.
Next I'll work the neck and drill for the tuning pegs. I add a small strip of rosewood to help with wear and tear where the strings protrude through. The nut for the guitar is made out of a piece of bacote. I then finish the guitar with a couple of coats of polyurethane.
