Slowly Progressing

With the holiday season heating up, I've been busy building stained glass stock for my upcoming shows. The clavichord has been on a back burner for a while. However, I devoted some time this evening to a little instrument building.

What you are looking at here is a nicely planed and sanded bottom where it joins the spine. I'm not an expert with the tool, and I had to have my husband hold on to the case while I worked, but I got the job done. I then went over it with sandpaper to get a perfect finish on the back. I'm happy with it. Hopefully, I'll be able to work on it some more in the near future. Keep checking back for updates.
