This is a continuation from part 3.
Below: The body is clamped to table to show current state of the build before work continues.
Below: View of the upper horn. A flat spot still exists on the side that needs to be taken care of and blended into the curve.
Below: The rasp file is used to blend the flat area and round it off.
Below: The flat spot is now blended into the curve.
Below: A view of the butt end of the body that needs rounding over.
Below: The edge has been rounded over (using the same file as seen above).
Below: The body is switched to a new position so we can get to the other areas that need rounding off.
Below: Here we see a flat spot on the inside of the upper cutaway that needed to be rounded.
Below: The flat spot has been taken care of and is now blended.
