Since starting into this wicked hobby a few months ago we are getting ready for bracing season here in Toronto. When the humidity hits the perfect tempurature expected around next week, we are going to start the next step.

For now these are some of the Rosettes we have made for some of the tops to be braced soon.

Comments and crit welcome as I am still new pointers are always great.

Keep in mind the soundholes are cut and they have all been thickness sanded sothey no longer have the CA residue still on the top.

Thanks for checking it out.

Madagascar Rosewood I believe is the main ring with a smaller ebony ring and red and black veneers.

Thanks for the positives guys!! :D
