I have found a design I like, (though won't have heart sound holes) have scaled the photo up to a full size template and what do you know it fits my available wood from that plywood cabinet exactly!
Timber from top to bottom;
The top!
The sides- will have to have the varnish sanded right off so the steam/water can penetrate it for bending - scary must take my time!
THe bottom - Not ideal as it has an off set-unmatched join in the laminate but does have a piece of mahogany laminate stuck to the other side that will show nicely through the sound holes!
This is my first real acoustic instrument, this time no cigar boxes or tobacco tin sound box so it will be a challenge!
