I'm really addressing two issue at this point:
1) You may have seen from another thread that I have slotted my ebony fretboard and now find a pretty determined bow in it. I'm hoping that a good glue job will settle that down. (although I have absolutely zero experience from which to make that judgement...)
2) The LMI plan I'm working from shows a bridge thickness of 7 mm. The LMI sanding beam is sitting on two shims I thicknessed to match the dimensions of my fretted fretboard. I estimate it hits the blank about a half mm low of the top. I have some veneers that come in around 0.020" or roughly 1/2 mm. Would you shim the fretboard from nut to soundhole? Why or why not?
Thanks!
