I made the heel with a sharp ridge, and tried an inverse volute at the headstock end. The mahogany wasn't very forgiving, I had to use a very sharp chisel in order to avoid any splintering.
In the pic it almost looks as the profile is V-shaped, but it's C-shaped as usual.

one of the best things about following your blog is watching you "flex your luthier muscles" as your skills grow.
this one is going to be a beauty and give it's owner simply years of joy.
that's a good thing, don't you think?
Thanks! I did consider keeping this one for myself, but hopefully it will go to a good home, and make it even better.
