Almost done. Lacquer is curing/gassing out. Then I'll buff it out and rock on. The binding and the channels they're in have been a problem. Uneven depth and width. I pretty much had to custom make the binding from a Stew Mac ivoroid strip about 1 inch wide and thicker than normal binding. There were still small gaps between the body and binding after the first coats of lacquer were applied, so what I had to do is drop fill the seams, then use butyl-cellusolve to melt the lacquer to a uniform depth and then scrape. The butyl-cellusolve is a great tool, but it causes the dark edges to melt and flow over onto the binding.
