Mixing shellac flakes, 1 lb. cut

A one pound cut of shellac is 16 ounces by weight of shellac flakes dissolved into one gallon of pure alcohol.  That's a ratio of 1 to 8.

So one ounce of shellac flakes dissolved into eight ounces of alcohol is a 1# cut.

The next project will be a replica of a short scale Ramirez flamenco guitar.  It's not a real big deal, but I first resolve the drawing to the dimensions written on the drawing.
