lotsa nails...

Almost, almost ready to glue this soundboard down.  You can see that I sanded away the polyu finish which I had failed to tape-mask for, on the underside of the soundboard where it meets the main diagonal brace, in between the two sound holes.


And I hammered-in some large number of 3/4" #18 brass-plated nails (same as I used for the bridge and nut pins -- the hitch-pins, however, will need to be a different type of nail).  Just far enough to get them started, so that I can quickly drive them home once I glue the soundboard down.
