Hey faggiuols

I see you made a very good job... the bowl looks great... with the thin lines between the dark wood... this gives some kind of special to every Oud made of dark wood.

The next days I will begin with the next Oud... also made of very dark rosewood, with the lines made of cypres... very fine (and nice smelling) wood. I hoipe, this bowl will be looking as great as yours !

Keep going on with patience :-)

Patence is the key to happyness !

Best wishes

Fritz

hello Fritz
thank you for your compliment !! coming from you is worth double!
.. But don't do now your oud rosewood similar to mine ...
or put images in forum between at least three months, because if I see your work, my oud flies out the window before being finished !!!..
and I live on the eighth floor !!!
thanks
:D :D :D

I'm wondering which tool I can use to measure the thickness of the bowl during sanding that will begin in a few weeks?
I know that I have to bring the thickness of about 1.5 mm, but what kind of caliber you use?
(do not spend a lot ..)
thanks to those who want me to answer

Use your intuition :)

I am sure there is a way to measure it but there is no real need to do that.

Really, when you are scraping at the end, you just want to remove the square edges which happen when the ribs meet eachother. when it starts to appear round and smooth you stop scraping.

thanks Samir
I imagined that we proceed in this way.
thanks for the clarification.

about the interior is only important to clean the need to apply the strip of paper glued?

some people scrape the interior very clean and some others leave it as is. It depends on how much you like scraping and how much you think people will look inside.

it has been debated that a smooth interior projects better sound... I think its a waste of time.

Goodmornig everyone

I'm not lost ..
I am still at work! too quiet perhaps but always at work!
I am about to finish the bowl and I will post the images soon.
Meanwhile, I am preparing a decoration to the bottom of the bowl to
cover imperfections of the arrivals of the ribs.
some image. I have yet to perfect the lines with a scalpel and fill in the gaps of the design with glue and dust rosewood!
I took it from the drawing images from the internet. I hope the author of the design hasn't a problem.

Wow ! That looks awesome !!

Did you finally made all ribs with the heat gun ?
Since I saw it standing next to the bowl I was happy to see that I'm not the only one,
using a flat iron for the bending. :D

Nice work, keep it up !




Best regards
