Luckily there’s plenty room to fix it. had a good day all round really. Truss rod fitting is the next job on the list.

Take care guys, sending our love and support.

@darrenking I have also tried pressing a few sides with a single, thicker cross grain layer of mahogany in the centre as this is closer to the construction used in the originals. This works equally w...

Thanks @darrenking for taking the time for the detailed reply. Hmmmmmmm ... I’m now thinking about all the fun I could have with new kit in my workshop! Coincidentally, between my first post and this ...
