The structure is made according to the drawing made during the earlier stage. The measurement was made by using my height and hand width. I also considered the measurement of the bending of my arms to hold the structure in place for comfort.
The measurement was done with the radius of 60-75 cm
The arch was made using three layers of 2-3mm thick wood strips. The usual method of steaming the wood to bend it into shape is not possible due to unavailability of the equipments. With the help of technician I was able to find a premade mould to use as base for the structure until it is firm in place. First the strips of wood was cut using Bandsaw and later they were layered with wood glue and clipped to the mould for 24 hours
During this time, I collected preloved Guitar tuning pegs from a repair shop, as well as other materials like strings and key rings. I was also able to find the right size of i-loop at the workshop.
The arch was drilled with two various sized according to the marking (as shown in the diagram). After all the drilling was completed according to the markings, i-pins were inserted. Screwing in of the tuning pegs was the last step before installing the guitar strings.
The angle of one of the string was not right, making it difficult to keep it tight wound. The issue was solved by tying it in unauthentic manner. The i-pins were looped with three different sizes of key rings for it to cluck.
