We took a field trip out to Western Reserve Hardwoods in Perry this past weekend. The owner will be closing his store, which was rather sad. He did, however, run some of Matt's oak through a joiner so that he could begin work on the back of the guitar. It was neat to be around so much beautiful wood. He glued it that evening.

While the Sunchild & I were out yesterday, he took the coping saw to the joined pieces & cut out the back. When I arrived at home, he was using the planer on it to thin it out some. That oak is going to make a beautiful back.
