Body bound and neck attached

I bound the front edge, then took a deep breath and attached the neck. It went on straight. Then I glued the back back on and routed a rebate for the binding. Around the heel I had to make the rebate with a chisel, as the router wouldn't fit. 


The first two pieces went on with some careful taping and a wee clamp. As the glue dried I bent the rest of the binding. 


Here's a pic of the front, with maple and mahogany. 


And the back, with only mahogany. 


Time to mix some shellac!
