Scroll

The machine-carved scroll was fat, perfectly symetrical, and lacking concavity of any sort. I added another 1/4 turn to the volute, added concavity to the sides, and re-chamfered the edges according to the directions and pictures on makingtheviolin.com and this blog post by Manfio: http://www.violinist.com/blog/manfio/20096/10261/
