So is a flat spoke shave better or a curved one for this purpose?
Brett
I round all mine and have had a few comments from people who have seen CBG's before that mine have a real neck (compared to a flat board neck ) Not my opinion just what the playing public has stated. I use a sureform and sandpaper and it takes too long, I have to look into a spokeshave.

How old is the sureform? I have the big one .. looks like a plane ..... that thing eats wood!
I didn't round necks at first, but now I do. But it would also depend on the look I was going for and the box thats going on it.
But I also tend to be more traditional ( if there is such a thing) and I only sureform the rough shape, finish with a drum attachment in the drill press, block sand at 150 to make sure it's not bumpy and put a finish on it.

This is a new version ( I have my Grandfather's old one)

This is the look that I have been going for.
