Day 102: Gluing up the Case Bottom

I was able to start the glue-up of the case bottom over the weekend. There's not much more to report than that - apply glue, put on clamps, weight down to avoid cupping. That's about it.

The photo below is of the first two boards after they've been planed and scraped into submission.

As you can see in the photo above, I was able to get the third 60" board glued up using our state-of-the-art clamping system. Only the best at Tortuga Early Instruments Worldwide Headquarters. Rather than bore you, dear reader, with more photos of boards, I'll put up another post when I have all of them glued, planed and scraped.

Until then...
