ASMR Relaxing Luthiery: Octave Mandolin Neck

Hey guys, I just wanted to share something with you. I know this might not be everyone's cup of tea, but there's something about these types of videos that I find really captivating. Just the sounds of someone creating something, mixed with the occasional shuffle of their feet - it's oddly satisfying to me. I hope some of you can appreciate it too! But don't worry, I'll have some new content coming your way soon if this isn't your thing.

Thanks to Oak Studios for the music; I'm trying something different, and so far, I like it. Check them out, and let me know what you think of the music.

Great editing, this is very soothing. Is there a particular reason you go for the seam at the headstock instead of at the back of the fretboard on your scarf joint?

[@TwoCherriesIns]

Thanks, and yes there is, If done well it's nearly invisible this way, and with a headstock veneer it's much stronger. I never liked the look of it on the back of the neck, nothing wrong with doing it that way, it's just not the look I'm usually going for.

What was the tool you were using to round over the frets at the end?

[@TwoCherriesIns]

Its a HOSCO compact fret crowning file, you can find them online relatively easily.

@TwoCherriesIns oh lovely. I've been using micro files and it's..... suboptimal

[@TwoCherriesIns]

I like these, give it a try, let me know what you think.
