First mock up assembly

Here are the braces, the bridge patch, the top, the sides and the neck
in the same place for the first time. Next task is measuring and
marking out exactly where the bridge patch goes. Then notching the
braces to match it.

And before glueing the bars (the transverse going pieces) I have to
decide whether or not I should use a soundhole patch. It improves
strength around the hole, but I don't know. It's a tiny bit ugly.

The sides will be cut to proper height, in my rush the other night I
just wanted to get some wood bent and didn't saw it before bending. Of
course that means that the dark spots will go.
