Thankks. I've done some turning, so I guess I'll look into making a longer handle myself and swapping it out with a shorter one.

Great! Thamks.  So far I've made 3-4/4 violins, 2-3/4's and 1-1/4.  Not all great, but 2 or 3 very playable.  So I have some experience in bending.  Hopefully enough.  I just have really enjoyed making the violins and always wanted to try playing a cello,  So here goes.

Ben, I assume you agree that gluing to the center level of the mold (using full strength glue) is the way to go.  It seems right/logical to me, but I'm specifically asking a cello maker so I can be sure there is no reason this will cause problems later.  Thanks.
