VanKirk Posted July 18, 2014 Report Share Posted July 18, 2014 Looking good. I never have drilled the control holes before starting the carve. Did it hinder carving in any way? I suppose it's no big deal since I've seen carves with F holes. Shows my inexperience. What dye and concentration did you use, if I may ask? I look forward to seeing it finished!

ScottR Posted July 20, 2014 Report Share Posted July 20, 2014 I love the new design Peter. I am impressed how you took a top with only a medium amount af figure and made it end up looking like it had a lot more. That finish is very nicely done. I also enjoy seeing a hand carve done with chisels the old fashioned way. There are not many of us left that do that. SR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
