I worked on the neck thinning the neck to a comfortable thickness and shape.
I also work on the heel and heel cap.
The heel cap was from a bridge blank which was defective due to cracks.
Using the freshly sharpen chisel definitely feels great.
One thing hard was the heel and neck had different direction of runout.
So carving the heel was difficult.
I roughly carved the heel and finish up using my drum sander attachment
All looks good.
Thicknessing the neck.
