    Second attempt at guitar body

    I usually like the hand tool forum the most but I'm back to building instruments. Having built 3 F5 mandolins, I'm now trying to build a dreadnought guitar. The neck came out great but the body ended with an unfixable flaw. I sanded through one of the sides. So now I'm building box #2 and I thought that I would share the process here.

    Here's a few photos of the neck with the firewood body.

    Here's the start of the new body.
