Gluing on the binding was a challenge. I had never used such a large binding - the extra material made some of the bends a challenge. I’ve found rubber band clamping to be the best method for this. Tape alone wouldn’t hold the binding curve, and I can apply very selective pressure depending on how I organized the bands. I wound up regluing a couple of sections the next day. Note the top section with the missing wood. The binding nicely retains the ideal curve of the body.
