If you look back through my pics you will see that I work w/o molds and build to a line on the top. The sides are placed and the fixed by the Tentalones (I call them Peone), one block at a time. This allows me to forgo complex calculations forming the side shape to fit the MANY different shapes I build and gives me a great fit to the top. I can ONLY then form the side shape to receive the back and am able to put in and shape the kerfed linings in the more conventional way.

This is a familiar sequence to anyone who builds in the Spanish style.
