The (2D) geometric development step by step

Step 7

Location of corners and smallest width

The corners of the outline are positioned on the circular arc (K) wHich is drawn from the centre of the original square through the point of intersection (L) of base-line and cord-line.

The smallest width appear between the circular arcs of the rotated base lines (J)

 

Step 8

Fingerboard dimension

The size and proportion of the fingerboard relates as:

O:M=P:N

when 2xM=650 Than M=325.

If O=24 and the length of the fingerboard 269 mm

Then P=43.86

 

 

Step 9

F-hole size and location

The position of the F-holes are decided by the Lengths (R) of the side of the equilateral triangle deciding the size of the radius of the base line and its position after the rotation completed rotation

The length (Q) is almost 72 mm

 

 

Step 10

Bass bar location

The irrational direction of the bass-bar is defined by a line (S) from the point of intersection of the cords on the longitudinal axis and the tangent point on the upper F-hole edge
