Made a frame from 3/4" pvc and ply, 2x4 base. Draped plastic sheet over the frame and taped it to the ply bottom. Made 4 posts from the pvc with caps to support the guitar body.

when you interested into fuming wood with ammonia, you might want to have a look at these woods.
This material has been fumed with the industrial fuming chambers at Mehling & Wiesmann, Germany.
