This is the best truss-rod slot I've done so far, routed it out with my Triton TNMRTR router fitted with a 12mm guide bush and a 6mm cutter & a jig purpose-built for this job.
The ends are tidied up with chisels and the widened slightly to accept the adjustment barrel.
If you want to make your own DIY electric guitar, you'll need to rout a slot for the truss rod - this is how to do it. The template jig is fixed onto the neck blank using double-sided tape between masking tape; similar to the tape & glue trick but less messy, though you have to be more careful when lining everything up as once it's down it's stuck.
