I'm preparing an outline drawing and body template for a Gibson H1/2 mandola copy. I don't have access to an original instrument (only pix on the Mandolin Archive), but a search on the Cafe has given quite a lot of the critical dimensions. I'm trying to scale up an A model mandolin drawing. One item I'm missing for the mandola, is the width of the neckblock plus ribs at the 12th fret crosspiece. The fingerboard width at this 12th fret location has been quoted at 1.75 ins. Can anyone please supply the overall body width at this point? Thanks......John
