Morning bender

Me and the kids took it a bit easy this morning. They played with their stuff and I played with mine, and bent the sides for a tenor, a piccolo and the miniature which will get the neck from yesterday's post.

It took me about 40 minutes and everything turned out really well. There might be a few spots that need a touch up but I've found that easier to do after the wood has relaxed a bit in its new shape.

All three will be cherry by the way. I think cherry is an excellent wood.

The two (almost) circular shapes will be a couple of (absolutely circular) bowls that Ann and I are making.
