They will be face mounted per Experiment number 2. The recessing won稚 be as severe as there is only a 10mm top plate.

Wabi sabi? Not familiar with kintsugi, will need to study.
It is a relatively moot point though as over night this happened:https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...b1a7b2e893.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...a5d55e1242.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...c7a7f35e38.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...5aa4ef5bc0.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...9d296f28c2.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...37951645cf.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...348a31ff26.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...1c6a41624e.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...f97907c24f.jpg

Nice patch! Kintsugi is usually used in regards to pottery. If a piece breaks it is repaired, often with gold to fill the cracks, to make the repair a feature of the piece - like this:

Well fixed sir!
So in the spirit of trying to get as many things done as possible in the stolen moments I have, there was some hurly Burly happening in the lab this afternoon.

The mahogany base is 37.5 mm, the burl cap is 20mm which should leave a nice margin for a carve and a tapering toward the neck pocket.
At this point due to some of the earlier whoopsie moments in the build, the rear will be black, which should highlight the beech laminate neck (assuming that is is stable enough after shaping).
I知 going to attempt to pare down some of the left over burl for a HS faceplate. That may not work given the nature of the burl, but we値l have a crack at any rate.
