I'm resawing some black acacia that I will be selling, and am wondering if anyone knows the minimum size necessary for plates and sides of a Baritone. The will be big enough for a tenor, but I could tweak things a bit to get a baritone if I knew how.

Thanks.

Don

I would like to make a black acacia tenor, I would also like to try it for a tongue drum and marimba keys.

Robert, I'm not sure what a tongue drum is, but your best bet for marimba keys would be Honduran Rosewood.
I'll have a few tenor Black Acacia sets available soon, as well as a few koa sets.
