Building a Cello

Revisiting the front

I got some feedback that the front (and back) were too thick. I left them thick on purpose to begin with in the hope to get some one to have a look and advice me. That advice turned out to be much more difficult to get that I had though. Hence I already glued to back to the ribs and the bass bar on the front. I really want to get the corpus closed soon so I thought it was time to revisit the front and finish it. I reduced the thickness along the edges today. Tomorrow I will likely finish the ff-holes. That's it then probably for now. I think I won't know what to do better before the cello is all fitted up (in white, without varnish) and somebody can hear it. That doesn't seem so far any more!

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