So I found out that I wouldn’t get #6 completely braced over the weekend. I definitely had the time, but I did not have the materials to finish the rosette, so I couldn’t brace the soundboard. I did, however, get the back all braced up. Here are pictures of that (and what I have of the rosette)

I think this guitar is on hold until I can get enough moolah ($) to order the abalone stars. Those things are expensive!
