Keeping on learning. I mucked up one fretboard (chipped while resizing marker holes) and one set of bindings (cut the initial channels much too shallow - nearly sanded through the bindings while levelling them with the sides). Also, my first attempt at French Polishing was a flop and had to be stripped off - went for something a bit simpler to apply in order to finish this build. Will be looking to get back on the FP horse again soon.
Hopefully my last kit build - next one is planned is a concert size ukulele where I will attempt my own joining and thicknessing of top and back, and side bending, cutting rosette channels, making a bridge and making the neck from scratch. Trying to pick up a couple of new techniques with each build.
