Default Joining Plates/Bending Sides/Neck Blank

I just received a batch of pics from Larry. There are multiple posts below.

Firstly, I went with no center strip on the back. I decided to allow the wood speak for itself.




Next, the top and back plates are being joined in a nail press and set aside to allow the glue to cure. The first two shots (from a previous build) show the nail press prior to the top/back being glued up.












Here are some pics of the back and top braces laid out on the brace stock.

In the night you hide from the madman
You're longing to be
But it all comes out on the inside
Eventually
