Love great Fred! He’s one of my luthier idols. Still remember the GAL interview: “teaching the dream to fly” if I do remember well. Impressive

Hi,
I just glued the bridge on the dreadnought I’m building and generated some Chladni patterns.

I use two heat lamps. Scott St. Dennis uses a heat lamp as well in his vids. I think this system works well because it heats up neck from underneath as well. I think you need to put it/them closer and get the heat up higher than 180 as the glue is probably pva and titebond says starts to soften at 150 but I think the glue used is probably…
