I bought a Stew Mac Baritone kit. I knew that the supplied back is plywood. I'm planning to attempt a solid back (worst case I fail and use the supplied, laminated back).
I have a two piece bookmatched mahogany blank. Do I plane it first and then glue the two halves together or do I glue them together and plane?
If I plane first do I join the two halves while I brace the back, or do I glue them together and then brace the back?
Thanks!
I have built cigar box ukes so I am familiar with surfacing to a precise thickness.
