I am building a bouzouki based on Grahm McDonald's book, and am wondering about the grain orientation of the neck block. I am using a bolt on tenon connection to the neck, and will be using stacked pieces of mahogany to build the neck block. shoulc the end grain be oriented front to back or side to side? Since it will most likely be 4 stacked pieces, would it make sense to alternate direction? This is my first build so any help would be appreciated.
