9:00am - 5:00pm



Finally....finished scraping and sanding the back. 




Added a few cleats to support the book matched back.




Added two dowels for support to the neck to body assembly.



Next, I sanded the back smooth on the table sander.





Here they are, already to be glued together! 



The last thing to build for the mandolin is the finger board. I temporary glued the fingerboard to plywood so I that I can add the binding, frets and inlays.



Here's a shot of the inlays and binding that I'll be using.




What else is going on in the shop?
How about Ryan hard at work building his bass.



....and Mark building the neck for his next violin.
