Mandolin Top design keeps cracking; repost

[George Semenov]

Fortunately the top is holding up and there is no sign of cracking. The tail piece also has no problems. I did shorten it a bit, as it was almost touching the top. I think I finally can move on to my next project without worry.

Good save, George. I think the new sound hole design--and in fact the whole thing--is outrageously cool!
