I GUESS I HAVE ENJOYED WHITTLING since I was a little kid. I have scars on my hands to prove it, so this bass neck is a really pleasurable whittling project. I made some nice progress today, slow but sure.

There is lots of fine carving yet to do, and lots of careful sanding, but all in all I think it is going well.
But I still have not decided what to do with the foot of this neck. Pat M. suggested I carve a Griffin head, you know, the mythical monster with the head of an eagle. I am tempted-but that might be a bit too medieval. Maybe just another simple volute would be best. I will put that decision off to the last. What do YOU think, send me a message!
