So if the dowel only goes part way through the neck block perhaps the small hole is there to vent any trapped air/excess glue that would otherwise
prevent the neck being properly seated when being glued in place? So not a nail hole after all?

My pleasure dear Richard
I wouldn't say "approval", but Arabic calligraphy is a very delicate art, so a calligrapher should take a look before gluing the rose. That's all.
Good luck again
Yours indeed

I have gone through a difficult situation this summer and have re-located to Sacramento, CA. I have yet to move and set up the shop, so all oud work
has been suspended. Thanks for your concern.

Very nice post and very informative as well, but do you have a picture of the braces and its measurements ? It would be great ..
And great job

I do not have the face or any information about the original bracing. I will apply calculated locations and sizes and hope for a good result.

The oud is packed away for relocation so I don't have any numbers for you. I plan to use the bracing design from the oldest Nahhat that I have
specifications for, adjusted for the length of the Atonji.
