Cut out and planed the side panels for the Cobh mandolin. Started with quarter sawn cherry for the sides, but had problems as the wood was knotty. Probably wold break in the bending process so I made a new set out of black walnut. Ready for bending.
Started a new project; I'm calling this one a Mandolele. An arch-top ukulele with a soprano scale, strung in fifths like a mandolin. Floating bridge with a separate tailpiece. Laser-cut the profiles.
