Ok, so nothing special here. I have a tenor that I am coping just for the hell of it. This one is all walnut with spruce bracing. The pictures make it look twisted, but I think its fine. Not sure why the camera angle did that. 15" radius back and top. The sides and back are all book matched from the same plank.

You can see my archtop in the background...

Joe Desperado, makin' progress.

Looking good there Joe. Did I ever send you the link to Kevin Mason's site? He's got pics of a fabulous concert Uke he built for his wife. He said to drop him a note if you need any pointers.

Are you going to use a Cedar top from Pop's secret stash?

Yep. Pop came home from the hospital a few days ago. He is still having some complications, but he seems to be in good spirits. I snagged a bundle of the cedar he had cut up last year. So I will probably make the top this weekend.
