Finishing my Stick

Today was my last day in the wood shop. After hours of sanding last night and this morning, I spent the rest of the day measuring where the holes for my strings were going to go, and then drilling the holes as well. After drilling my holes, I had to spend another hour sanding the stick again, because of the shards of wood that were messed up from the drilling. When everything was perfectly shaped, smooth, and ready, I took the stick upstairs and sprayed it with the finish. I put 2 coats on either side and left it to dry. Later, I will start the weaving with the rawhide i have been soaking for two days and the leather.
