Please ask if you are not sure about something you know the old adage measure twice cut once -- thank you

The Abalone gets two strips of BWB on the inside and two strips BWB on the out side. The black lines are slightly thinner on one edge, if placed properly the lines will be/look symmetrical.

Glued the rosette last night. Thanks Ken for straighting me out on the order the rosette went together. Started on the top bracing. Glued the bridge plate and the first leg of the x brace.

Using scraps cut from a flexible cutting board I confiscated proved and excellent barrier from my own ineptitude with a chisel.
