CAPPING THE HEEL

10/20/2020

I like to cap the heel with a wood that matches the fingerboard, but in this case Stephen wanted some Koa on his instrument so I decided to match the koa on the end piece with this Koa end cap.

Preceding the end cap will be three pieces of thin veneer sandwiched to make a black/white/black detail under the thicker Koa Cap.  Lets see how it goes.

spread a little glue on each piece

then pop on the final piece, the end cap and clamp it all together.

and here is the final result after a little whittling and scraping.  when this is all shaped and sanded it is going to look very nice.
