Back making part-2

 Back making completed. I installed latticed bracing into the Honduran RW back. Lattice bracing enables to use thin materials for the back. This time, I selected the back thickness of 2.2mm. This is my standard thickness for RW materials. This thickness, the standard ladder bracing works. However, the ladder bracing shows a waiving issue, if I use less than 2mm thickness. The other advantage for the lattice bracing is the clacking issue prevention for solid materials. Honduran RW is a very stable material, and it is almost clacking issue free. However, Brazilian RW often causes clacking issue. Lattice bracing is able to minimize this issue. For the lattice bracing install, the vacuum bag clumping technique is the must choice for the perfect gluing.
