Internal matters

It is all about internals this week. I shaped and glued in the end block. I used a piece of waxed paper to prevent gluing the instrument to the mold.

Earlier I bent the linings in the same manner as I did with the sides. I clamped them up for a couple of days (all four of them at the same time).

Tonight I removed them from the mold and glued them in. This is where the multiple layers of the mold com into play. I removed the top layer of the mold to give room to clamps.

I use paper clamps for clamping the linings to the sides.

When dried I still have to cut the sides to length and after that I will make a start with the neck.
