Here are some shots of the sides I bent with the heating blanket...... A little bit of a learning curve for sure..... I cracked the first cutaway - not enough heat! I have to say that I had plenty of help and moral support from Ken Hodges, John at Blues Creek and from Greg's video on Luthier Tube see Nelson side bending video.

I used a nice tip I found on Kathy Kathy Matsushita site for profiling the sides http://www.luthiersforum.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=10102&t=8117&hilit=+side

Anyway here they are in the Solera that I built from Step -by - Step Guitar Making Alex Willis. I might actually try the entire build using this method.
