The procedure is to get the top thicknesses right first, then add the bass bar and cleats. It's much easier to track the cracks now that the surface is mostly clean wood.
Thomas here are SOOO many variables I really don't think anyone could live long enough to repeat what Carleen Hutchins did in her lifetime and come up with something new. I think that measuring the resonance of a free plate is a completely different thing to measuring an assembled instrument - no comparisons can be made because they are two different things. It would not be hard to measure an assembled instrument I suppose, but then it would be very complicated to make any adjustments. I'm not about to go there!
