So here are some new photos fresh from Dehradun. The guys there are very excited about the build being on AGF - I think this is the second time they've had one on. I just found out Tristan did one previously.

A shot from above shows the wider kirfing where the mini bevel will be.
The back braces have been glued on and are now ready to be shape
The back has been cut out. The florentine cutout will come soon. I love Indian Rosewood and especially like the darker streak down the middle. I also love the reddish purple that this one is going to show.
