Building Cello #2

Trimming the lower bout ribs

Before starting with the upper bout ribs, I trimmed the lower bout ribs so that I don't break them. The height was easy to trim level with the mould with a block plane. It was great to be able trim the ends at the corner blocks properly. I used a fine saw to get close to the line, and then a block plane until I reached the feathered ends of the c ribs. This is something I struggled with last time.

    Elias keeps growing so a bigger cello will be needed eventually. With the previous cello I had to hurry up a little as Elias needed it already. With this one I want to avoid the pressure.
