It's time for the scary bit... routing the truss rod channel! I want the channel to be perfectly straight, central, a tight fit and perfect depth. My jig consists of the the neck clamped firmly in my Workmate with 2 pieces of MDF clamped securely above with a gap just wide enough for the collar on my small router to ride between.
My first run yielded good results but ran a little short as the clamps restricted the router stopping it from getting as far along the neck as I needed but I will fix that for my second run.
