The Other Side
Today, on my lunch break, I bent and trimmed the other side for the cocobolo parlor guitar. I've clamped both sides in the mold so they don't relax out of shape before I get the neck and tail blocks glued in. I've got to finish setting up my friend's old 1943 Delta band saw before I can make the blocks. I don't trust my little Ryobi band saw to cut through three inch thick mahogany.

And here it is stored under the drum sander. When I build a workbench I'm going to incorporate the same type of storage.

It's really cool to see those sides taking shape!
It would be fun to see pics of the steaming process too, but I'd imagine you were a trifle too busy for picture taking during that.
Hope you can soon be done paying 'ol Sam, and have a bit more time open for building.
