Resawn wood, and molds

Sometimes I think this is my favourite type of blog pic - with loads of newly resawn wood. But then I take a pic of some extra nice plane shaving, or of a sharp knife.

Anyway, you can see some of the mahogany (2 or 3 sets), a load of really wide cherry boards, and some ash I thought was long gone. It comes from the same tree that provided the wood for the wedding uke I gave to Jukka and Aya. Next ash uke will get a cedar neck though, I couldn't get a neck blank out of it.

And I got some juniper fretboard and bridge blanks, it'll be fun to try.
