Steps in Errant Lutheirie (1):

Flat boards, coming together: Cherry and spruce... It took some time, but a tischler (carpenter) around the corner was finally able to thin these down for me...

- the following days will see the evolution of my new home-made (in the kitchen actually) guitar. 
A big thank you to everyone who helped me fund this project late last year when the green pear guitar was lost: it's finally coming together!

Bending sides: I had in mind a heat gun that I know is hiding somewhere in my boxes of unsorted things (anyone need an intern position?) - but lacking patience after a day's search, I opted for a modified wood burner - I jammed on what appears to be an aluminum rod. - yeah, that's sometimes how things come together: we bring a Form from the Chaos.

Some heavy things on wood - heavy things come in handy to keep things down, sometimes that's what you need so they can stick together for long enough to enjoy it of their own...

we see here as well the beginnings of the top side bracing... more soon.
