Day 14: Straightening the Box Frame

I've taken a long break from this project and it's time to finish it up. Reed is being really cool about it, which actually makes me feel worse. Once I had glued the pickup cradle box frame in, I realized I had neglected to square it to the body block. Fortunately, I used hide glue, so all I had to do was heat it up and slide the frame into place to square it up.  I clamped it, left it overnight and all is well.

Tonight, I'll get back to finishing the thing. Given that fact that I purchased most of the parts already completed, I'm not really sure what the holdup is. Oh, yeah - it's been this: Harpsichord Project.

Until next time...
