Thanks Steve. I do have his book. I'll have to dig into it a little more. I haven't looked closely recently, but I think that I remember that he starts with a semi inletted stock.

Mike, good news is that I don't have a mill (yet), so I would be using a drill press or router anyway. I'm certain that you are correct about stock making being a challenge.
