Rod, I can relate to the problems you had on this one. I'm doing one now that I cut the binding channel too long on, then cut off the top and back to save them. Lost the top, salvaged the back. Then one of our cats knocked the guitar off a countertop and there were 3-4 long cracks, but was able to clean them up. My ordeal didn't add but a couple of months to the build, but the frustration level was almost what you had. Glad you were able to get it done finally.
You did a marvelous job on it, Congrats!
Bob
