Since I've been neglecting to update this blog for too long now, time has come to renew this blog. I, however, made a lot of progress on my Paradox custom bass project. So within a few weeks, all blog posts of that project will be updated until now and I probably will do some small redesign too. I'll keep you posted.

When smooth, I will transfer the shape to 9 mmm plywood with a router and a copy bit, to use as the actual template.
