Ladder-braced parlor guitar

[Dave Bagwill]

I use the small shaves for a lot of things - removing glue and other crap from the work bench or other areas, little jobs around the house, as well as getting into the waist curve when I'm trimming back the top or back of the guitar. I've not used a planer so I can't comment on that.

Do you recommend that I get a set?

[Dave Bagwill]

You can just buy 1, they do the same thing the same way, I grab whichever is nearest and sharpest :-)

Ok Dave thanks for putting up with my questions. I have another question but I'm going to start another thread and pose it to the whole forum.

Dave…

Great build. How did you build your lamination molds for the sides?

[Dave Bagwill]

3/8" bendable plywood, laminated together over an outside form :-) Here is a pic from Brian Burns since I don't have a pic of my own.

Thanks Dave!

Do you have a good source for the plywood?
