Odd title, I know. After three years of working in it, I finished my violin (except the varnish) and now I've started on my viola. I thought that after having made the violin and understanding the process, the viola would go more quickly. Seems that it's true. On August 10 (Monday), I glued the front of my viola together.
I started to make my mould (for the sides)on Wednesday, I perfected it on Thursday. Friday I cut the front and cut the back to size (I'd only cut it close, should have cut it out properly before I started the rough arching).
Today, I worked on the rough arching of the front (right side) and got a long way with it.
Afterwards I took it inside and hung it up on a cord in the window. With the light on it I realized that it already is starting to look great. I have a blister on my thumb from the gouge and the thumb plane, but I don't care. It was worth it.
