Post subject:  neck holes

I'm currently working on a double cutaway (solid body) project. It was a cheap body I bought. I need some suggestions on how to go about with the neck holes. The heel is cut away and so one of the holes has been drilled in closer. I have found a neck plate on amazon that might do the job but its being shipped from china and it says its going to take about a month to get here. I also have bushings that I could possibly use. Anybody have any other suggestions or any advice?

I think Stewmac has some ferrules that are used under the screw heads withou using a plate.

the bottom holes look wider in that pick, if so you have no choice but to use bushings....
something like this would work:

or you can just buy some neck screws & see if the local hardware store has some kind of ferrules...
