The first new tool that we can put to the test is the top and back half template. Why a half template instead of a full template? Well there are several reasons ... it takes less material to make, it takes up less room to store it and finally it insures that both halves of the guitar are an identical match.
Next we lay out the sound hole location and size based on:
1) the scale length
2) the total number of frets
3) and the sound hole diameter is based on if there is a sound port or not. In this case there will be.
