#S 144 and 145 Have been French Polished- now it is time to string them up.  First we must attach the bridges and that is done by scraping off the finish where you want to glue the bridge.

These Kasha design bridges have a complicated trumpet shaped bridge to glue.  Requires a complicated clamp system.  looks funny but works just fine.

Then you have to glue in the label.  The label is cut into two pieces as part goes above the brace and part below.

Next we will want to install the tuners in the peg head.  I had cut the holes for them many days ago, now it is just a matter of inserting them and screwing the top down tight.
SORRY, I MUST END THE BLOG HERE.  FOR SOME REASON MY COMPUTER DOES NOT WANT TO DOWNLOAD ANY MORE PHOTOS.   SORRY, THE REST OF THE STORY TOMORROW HOPEFULLY
