Whoa don't give up so easy - you're just asking the wrong people. Head over to mandolincafe to find where LOTS of folks have done similar conversions:

Lots more can be found. Also the Eastman MDC-805 mandocello is a real good instrument. Goldtone is also soon offering an archtop guitar based 'cello if you don't want to convert.
