If anybody knows a better way to sand inside the horn, I am all ears. To me that is almost the hardest part of the entire project. Just not enough room in there. I'm glad I didn't decide to put together F-5 mandolins...
If you have access to a spindle sander, that might be the ticket. Depending on the size if the sanding drum you attach, you should be able to get into some pretty tight curves - or big ones as needed. The thing spins and goes up and down - wish I had one when I built the body for my mahoganycaster.

Good luck. And keep posting with your progress; things are looking great.
