Hi Everyone, I've just received OEHistorical Lute Construction' from the American Luthiers Guild. A fantastic book. There are very detailed instructions on how to build a bowl mould but no mention on how to facet them (it mentions that a accurately faceted mould is essential). It looks to me like most English builders use a section/bulkhead method of construction, like David Van Edward's CD courses and that bulk head construction has been historically documented, but does anyone know how to calculate/project and carve the facets from a solid block of wood? Other wise I am stuck before I begin.
