Front/Top Covering Complete

To review, the front/top contour is covered with two layers of 1/8" Baltic Birch plywood.  Last post had the second sheet of the first layer installed.  The next day we installed the first sheet of the second layer, then the day after that finished the first layer and added the next two pieces of the second layer.

Thus the plywood covering is complete.

Today I sanded down the high spots and made sure the plywood contours were true.  I started applying Bondo filler between the plywood surface and the outer edge, since the laminated oak ribs at the outside are generally lower than the plywood sheathing.  I will fair the Bondo to the plywood countour, then trim the sides with a router to that contour.

Once all that is accomplished, we will be ready to begin applying the Filon covering.
