Images After Refinements to the Top and Back

Ben called me to let me know he had finished the spruce top with both F holes complete. Further he had not been completely satisfied with the maple back arching and had therefore made refinements to it prior to starting on the its interior carving and gradation.

To the left is the completed top with both bass and treble side F holes finished.

In this photo the gorgeous flamed maple grain is now revealed much as it will appear in the finished violin.

This photo more clearly shows the finished top arching from the treble side.
