Go-bar deck assembly
From a sheet of 3/4" plywood, cut six pieces, each 2 feet x 2 feet. Stack and glue two of the pieces together, and stack and glue the other four together (the extra thickness is required to give the go-bar deck base sufficient stiffness).
Drill a 1/2"-diameter hole in each corner, 1" from each edge. Assemble the parts from the hardware kit as shown in the "exploded" diagram below.
Use wooden blocks (or any solid, well-supported platform) to raise our concave wooden soundboard dish, or our concave back dish, to the desired height above the base of the deck. Our flexible 24" fiberglass go-bars should be used for clamping, as shown above.
