Day 23 PM

Took it out of the clamps and there was still too much front bow (relief). Looks like that shim and baking I did yesterday worked too well. It held its shape. 

Used superglue and sanded cocobolo dust into the fret slots under the frets. 

Since the baking trick worked so well. I decided to relax the rod again and clamp the neck onto the straight bar at 3 areas. First, middle and last. No shims this time. Now it's totally straight. Back into the oven for an hour at 175 deg.
