Arm Bevel and Soundboard for 006

In between gluing the inlay for 004 and 005, I did a few things for 006. I glued the kerfing to the top and then radiused it to 30’. Next I needed to work on the soundboard. I am going to use redwood on this one and I sanded it down a little, then installed the rosette. I cut the channels with Dremel and StewMac rosette cutting jig. Still super impressed with this setup. This was my first time to use “Zipflex” from Advanced Shell Technology and it was super easy to use. Once the shell and the purfling strip was in place, I sanded a little more to get things flush. This top seems to have great tone already.
