Side assembly complete

Both SSJ and Nylon models, side assembly completed. I made solid linings for both models. While installing solid linings, I also installed a beveled arm rest for the SSJ and floating arm-rest anchors for the nylon model. Beveled armrest does not work well for nylon model, because of the thin body shape and the playing style. Also the purpose of the arm-rest is different. Nylon model requires an isolation between the right arm and the guitar top. Due to the very thin top thickness, right hand arm on the guitar's lower bout kills sound quality. To solve this issue, the floating arm-rest has been installing my nylon modes. Steel strings guitars are less sensitive to the connected right hand arm over the sound board. So, I have been using the beveled arm rest for enhancing play ability.
 Now, both sides are ready for installing the top and the back.
