gluing the top together
So, here´s a picture of the joining of the belly or
top. I´m using my guitar setup. I just ´finetuned it with some blocks of
wood a 3 screws. There´s no need to complicate life.

jointing the soundboard
So next thing was to joint the two bookmatched pieces
for the soundboard. There I used my guitar setup and a wedge to keep the
jointing surface 90 degrees to the table:

Starting the work on the soundboard of the violin
So here´s some really crusty and rustic work. Cut cut into two pieces. Next time I will visit my local carpenter and ask if I may use his big bandsaw.

So here she is all ready to be played. Now I only need to make a video. The last photo, the one from the side has some weird light reflex from the sky, that I didnt see when taking the photo.

One more of the back. Its now on its final thickness.
Weighs 94 grams and main resonance is just under F. Thats all very
correct.
The outer edge is not finished and wont be done untill later. I´m happy with the inner edge, but the corners..... I didnt know what to do with them, so thats the way they look now

Back of violin almost finished
So here is how it looks now. Almost finished. Its weighing 100 grams and will try to remove some ,more 6 -7 grams.
As you can see, I´m playing with light. The violin is much more a sculpture than a guitar and so its also more interesting taking pictures of it.
