Cutting the Sound Port

Sound ports interest me both from an aesthetic and a practical point. I'm interested to see how this one effects the sound of the guitar as I have never played or as far as I know heard a guitar with a  sound port.

When it came to cutting it the basic principle is simple - reinforce the area, make a design, print it out and glue it to the side then route with a dremel tool and spiral cutter..  In practice it is a bit more intense since it is one of those one wrong move and there is no going back kind of activities..

Anyway this one turned out good (IMHO)..
