Bracing is going in and getting carved. This is my favorite part of the process, something about just hogging off material is incredibly satisfying and when everything is done to sit back and look at your work is a great feeling.

The bracing is thin, light, and slightly taller than most and scalloped heavily. I have a very clear idea of the sound I'm going for and this pattern should get me either right where I want to be or very very close.

Some little shots of the bracing so far. The center crosspoint I cover with a little linen reinforcement but I do like the look of it from a photography standpoint.





Still have the upper bout pieces to install and get cut to shape. More to come!
