Continued from previous posts. As usual, it took longer than expected, but here are the rims all bent and blocked up. Next steps will be getting the tops and backs all braced up and voiced. After that I’ll install the kerfed lining and side braces, do some final bowl sanding, notch the lining and finally put the boxes together. Simple as that.
Should have more to share in the coming weeks.
Thanks for the support! Happy to answer any questions!
Very cool - thanks for the info!
I'll probably try to get the body from a flea market, or from my dad's collection of old junk if he'll let me touch it. But getting some professional help getting the neck right wouldn't be a bad thing at all.
