Thanks for the info.

I used Gorilla wood glue, although some super glue would also work.  I think it IS easier to position them this way.  I lopped the ends off with my Harbor Freight 'zero kerf' saw that I use for cutting fret slots.  It's pretty fine toothed and doesn't mar the neck.  Then sand with a sanding block.

And when you cut them, what do you cut them with?

That is cool. I did toothpicks once but pre cut them. This way looks easier to do and probably easier to hold while you glue.

What kind of glue do you use?
