Preparing the top for gluing. I anchor my mold to my work board which sits atop a large turntable. Since I can't move around my workspace the guitar spins for me. Has worked out really well.

My only problem with your work is how dirty everything is - I think that under high magnification of my computer screen I actually saw a single dust mote. :-)
Seriously, good looking work there.

Top glued up. Everything looks tight. We'll see what it looks like tomorrow.

Successful top assembly. Dove right in and cleaned up the overhang with a trim router and flush cut bit. I am kind of in awe of this thing I'm making (and that I'm the one making it).

Ya, good work John. Dave's right. Far too clean. Anja always knows when I am building. The living room is grimy then.

Looking good!
Not sure why you have all that masking tape on the sound board? -- But take extreme care when removing it, actually I'd suggest gentle heating with a blow dryer. If you start pulling up long grain splinters it will make you very sad.
