Building a Cello

Cleaning up after glue up

Although I had tried, I didn't quite manage to clean up all the glue straight away, while the glue was still fresh. I went all around the cello and clean up the bigger rests with a scraper. Here's a photo of the biggest one. Glue rests will affect how the wood takes up the stain and varnish so it is important the get it all clean. I will go through the spots once more with hot water to make sure it all comes out before varnishing.

    My son is outgrowing his cello soon. Could there be a better reason to learn how to make one :).
