Cleanup Savinelli Samanda

[Heypat]

I have been wanting one of these for a while, I Just received this yesterday and worked on it this morning. It’s not completely done but real close.

some before and after picks are below.

still working on some of the deep bite marks, the lighter only did so much. I always use a rubber bit but still try to get them all out if possible

Great job. That's one of Sav's greatest hits, likely the most popular author shape in the world.

 

[Parsimonious Piper]

Nice. You really made the grain pop!

 

[mikethompson]

Wow! Really nice job on that finish.

Yes very very good job the clean up! And yes that shape has a sort of cult following on here at least. I almost bought one, until I refinished one for a friend, I'm glad I didn't buy one. To bulky for me.

Same. I've tried to warm up to that shape and just can't bring myself to do it.
