THIS SIX LEGGED creature might look like a road kill insect to you, but in reality it is the beginning of an assembly jig for the three concerts I am building.
This device when completed will hold the sides in their proper position so that I may glue iand clamp the sides to the soundboard and install the tentalones.

Now the three elevating feet are screwed and glued to the underside to raise it up to use the clamps that will hold the sides down while glue sets.
Here I have made the side braces from shop scraps.  They will move in and out limited by the threaded bolts you see sticking up through them.  
wing nuts will secure them in position.  I made them from two pieces of scrap so here they are glued and clamped.  
When this little delay is finished I will be able to put the sides on those concerts and get them "
