Began routing out the binding and purfling channels .. I have a small binding cutter attachment for archtop guitars that is good for the 8ft radius of the top and back.
Unfortunately, the locking screw stripped its thread so, I had to be creative with the repair. Later i realized that the new bracket needed to have a small central section filed with a deep curve to allow the guide wheel more room, needed for the extra depth of cut for the inner purfling channels.
