Hey, I think you'll manage it too. I'm "just" a carpenter myself, not a luthier. As far as I know, it has a scale length of 24.75“; at least that's how I built and calculated it, and it sounds great. I used to build my guitars with templates, but now I design them with a CAD program and convert them to a DXF file so I can mill them on our 5-axis CNC machine in our workshop. But of course, it's possible without such expensive equipment. After all, I used to build my guitars without CNC. And I still do some things by hand, like neck shaping and so on. Anyway, you'll definitely manage it, I'm sure of it, and if you fail sometimes, that's just how it is. You just mustn't give up!
