The new soundboard

is almost done. I changed up the order of work this time. Previously I thinned the entire piece of joined boards, then cut it to size. This time I cut it to rough size, then thinned it. Faster and more precise. Also, I used a belt sander this time to quickly thin the thing from about 0.200" to <0.013". Planing last time took several whole days; the sander took several hours. Joints are nice, still.
