Slowly but surely

I worked for a couple of hours today just scrapin away at the top. it is definitely starting to look more and more like an archtop witch is really motivating.



the holes help act as a guide as to how deep to carve. as you can see i still have plenty of work to do still. then i get to do it all over again for the back.

Can It Be?! A New Post?!

Hello everyone (or whoever actually reads this),

tonight i finally started gluing some wood together for my first build outside of school. Me and my dad glued together the top and back wedges. after this i'll need to carve both the inside and out to exact measurements. I took pictures but dont have the adapter so i'll upload them later. Heres a picture of what it will hopefully look like when its done.

the one on the left most likely. a few subtle differences but mostly like that.
