The Upper Frame

I made the five upper frame members (fir) and glued them in to place. The design of these is pretty weird: they are about 2 inches tall, but because of the 4' hitchpin rail (glued to the underside of the soundboard; shown in the pic: the curved piece in the middle), they have large cuts in them to make space. That's understandable. The weird part is that only about 1 inch of them actually comes in contact with the side of the case, by way of the liner. The bottom half just floats. There's not much gluing surface to work with.

On Monday I get to make the little wedges that help anchor these frame members against the side of the case. Unfortunately, each of these wedges (of which there are about 20) is a different dimension, with unusual angles...
