After building a couple of tools over the weekend I got back to working
on closing up the box.


She's closed up now, Just finished the end wedge this evening
(pic didn't turn out, I'll have to try again later).
I also got the top shellaced and will rout for bindings possibly as soon as
tomorrow.


Thanks for all the help and advice along the way,
Chris

Ooooh, that's nice. Those colors really compliment each other.
I'm of the opinion, though, that you need more clamps.

Looks nice so far, and I`m sure it`ll be even better under finish.
Keep it up, Chris. Walnut always catches my eye for some reason.

Chris, that's looking great! I have a set of Claro that I got from "The Don", guess all I need now is a redwood top. Hmmm, maybe I could just use one of the cedar tops I got from Jason.

Great job! Can't wait to see what you do with the binding.
