Back braced...

I used a radius dish to sand my braces to the proper radius. Once, I got them sanded I made sure the fit was fairly tight to the back graft. Then I glued them down with the gobar. Sorry the picture is a little blurry.

Getting ready to brace...

Here's the back graft after the glue dried. I used blue tape to protect the back so I could use a plane to straighten up the graft. It also protected the back from the chisels. Also to the right is the graft after I chiseled out the grooves for the braces.
