Headstock fully sanded out.......

Template made for the maple top.  It needs to cover all the existing routing, and not spill over any of the curved edges or the chamfered top edge....... And I've filled the screw holes.


Maple top now the glue is dry and the sanding starts to get the saw burn off.  maple is full of sugar (maple syrup, remember?) so it is really prone to blackening under sawing......

There is a nice bit of figure in this wood, so I MAY try a sunburst on this thing, leaving the centre of the top uncovered and the back, and edges black.  Maybe!
