Hi virob,
Thanks for sharing again, always an interesting look under the hood. Just curious as to whether Michaud was fine with these pics being shared on the forum? Michaud is a very generous man and he shares his ideas to other luthiers and adopt some from others with permission, nevertheless, he has never posted his bracings in detail on his website. I just recalled some luthiers normally don't expose their proprietary bracing designs in the open like that. For example, Mcknight shares his build pics in his build threads and he posted the most pics in any build thread with great explanations, whilst he talks about his bracings and about adding carbon fibre to the right spots but he never posts his bracing designs out in the open.
