Hollowbody top carve :: Chubbuck Mousa 003

View fullsize

Above is my "carving shower" were I can better contain the mess of roughing out Mousa 003's hollowbody plates with an angle grinder fitted with a chainsaw wheel.  Below is the grinder setup along with where I stopped using the grinder before switching over to hand planes.

From here on out it will be hand planes and scrapers before flipping it over to scoop out the inside.

Back rough out :: Chubbuck Mousa 003

Last week I got a good start to roughing out the back on Mousa 003.  Still a ways to go on the outside before flipping it over and working the inside. I'm always amazed with how much ends up on the floor.  Below are both the rough carve and initial cleanup videos from the vlog.
