Fretting tomorrow.

Or at least I'll cut the slots. This is so much fun!

Alder tenor, cherry piccolo

Alli's tenor has got sides glued and shaped for the domed back, the
neck is carved and bolted on, and solid linings are installed.

Jukka's little piccolo is my fastest build ever, the back is glued and
soon only fretting and bridge work remains.

Upgraded piccolo mould

Thanks to Pete Howlett, I have learnt how a mould should be. This one
is not finished yet, I'm gonna make a rebate where the roughly cut
soundboard fits. And I need better spacers to hold the sides firmly.

But I never had a better glueing experience than this! I need one of
these moulds for each size, obviously.
