Left handed walnut acoustic guitar, carving the heel


Carving the heel, the wood chips out easily because of its high figure.  The grain goes in all directions. so chisel work is held farther from the layout lines, then finished up with rasps.
I always do the left side first, being a lefty.  That gives me a quality standard to aspire to on the right side.
