Winter Walkies

Had to get out of the house for a walk with Karen.

The Number Seven (7)

I've started number seven.  It will be in the shape of a Gibson J-45 - a slope shoulder dreadnaught.

The back and sides are of bubinga, the top lutz spruce.

Here we see the two book-matched halves of the top being glued on my gluing jig, the wedges (to compress the joint) driven smartly home.  The back will feature two book-matched pieces with sapwood in the middle.

Bitters

SRAMmies over to the casa:  Mason, Shayna, Danielle, Fed and Lou. 

Thanks to Danielle for showing us how to make bitters!  Fun day.
