More Top Brace Carving

A friend of mine (who is a luthier) inspected my top and said it was still way too stiff, not flexible enough. He suggested I remove a lot more material.
Compare this with before and you'll notice that the tone bars only have one peak now instead of two, and that the X has been tapered back further toward the center. I don't have a feel for this yet, but I was able to feel the difference from what I had last month compared to now.
