Very nice so far! I really like the inlay work.

Love your work

New subscriber! Great content and editing. To have smoother cuts around curves with the resaw blade you can do relief cuts so that the blade doesn't bind.

Wood looks like chocolate 😁

While it is possible to flatten boards with a planer, not the way you show it here. You would have to build a sled and shim up the high spots. A planer will just compress a warped board and it will spring back after this operation. Ideally one side is flattened in a jointer and then the piece is run through the planer making it parallel.

Are these builds flat-radius fretboards?

This has a 14 inch radius
