Body making complete. I installed a Cocobolo veneer over the beveled armrest. Thickness is approximately 1.5mm. Thicker material is more challenging to install seamlessly. However, the thicker veneer makes more serious look. Also, thicker veneer matches well with the binding material. I very carefully bent the Cocobolo veneer, and installed using the Epoxy with African blackwood sanding dust. I also installed the scrolled edge on top of the cut-a-way, Material is 1/4" diameter Walnut dowel. Scrolled edge was also installed using the Epoxy with ABW sanding dust. I lightly sanded with 220 grid for entire body. Now, the body and the neck are ready for the jointing. Next week, the neck will be installed to the body.
