October 16




This week, the bridges are being fitted to the soundboard.

Here, the bridge is placed on short pins which were placed earlier.



After the bridge was clamped in place for a dry run, all the clamps were removed, the bridge and soundboard were given a film of glue, and . . .





. . . the real clamping begins! Our builders worked in teams--one positioning the clamping board, the other tightening the parallel-jaw clamps (they have really grown to love these clamps which they have found superior to any others).







A view through the many clamps used.











The clamping champs!
