Thank you very much for your answers!





They will be very helpful. I'll take Peter's advice to be patient very seriously...As I'm a beginner, I stress a lot when gluing and this time  I forget to confirm that the base of the bridge and the surface of the sound board fit completely well. And now,after gluing the two pieces   when I expose the soundboard to the light I can see little gaps of light between the bridge and the soundboard what means that the surfaces aren't well fit. So, I must to unglue and correct this. The unique positive thing about that is, because is bad glued, probably it will be easier to unglue.





Many thanks again





Júlio

I have unglued many violin fronts with an electric iron. Comes off like

butter .... if you haven't glued the ribs on this should be easy... do it

it carefully &  use the coolest setting not to risk burning the wood.  use

a knife to gently ease it off.  I sometime use a folded piece of wet cloth

to be on the safe side.



Hope the picture (removing the fingerboard of an antique guitar) comes

through
