    Wayne

    Both cherry & walnut will look beautiful, but as in the previous posting, it won't be consistent with original G&G. One thing you can do, and this drives a lot of cherry-staining purists...

    Tom,

    Rough sand the tongue & groove cedar because more than likely it has oxidized a bit. It will be a bright & beautiful purple/red color when sanded. It eventually will turn brown. When it...

    Hi Harry,

    Do you have a machining process/work flow scheme in mind for this job? Is there a delivery schedule? Do you have to deliver all pieces at once or can the parts delivery be staggered?

    I agree with Wayne in that it looks like bent lamination is what you're looking at. Plywood can be bent via moisture & clamping. You will have to experiment and see what works for you. For the...

    Dan,

    You might be able to cash the metal in but be extremely careful with removing the strings. There is a TREMENDOUS amount of tension in the strings and they can cause serious injury. I would...
