What's been going on in the shop - next chapter

Carving the tops is one of the more creative stages during a build, and it's a process I've always enjoyed.  I don't make a habit of using naphtha often since  I don't like drying out the wood unnecessarily, but I find that it's helpful at this stage to bring the figuring out to get a feel for the carve.

It's actually perfect.  It's much better than the tummy cut on the Mirage or even the Daytona.  I love how extended it through the upper horn like that. 

Yes, it's so cool, in fact, that I'm going to shape my belly to conform to it.

Yesterday while setting up projectors and two 10 ft. screens, I played the Hamer DVD and there was Mike carving a guitar body while Joel narrated.

So this is a nice thing to see as I drink my morning coffee.
