It's about 1:00 p.m. now. I just spent four hours scraping down all the bindings and purflings, sanding it all, filling any little gaps (by filling the gaps with Titebond and then sanding the area, so the sanding dust fills the gaps), and rounding the sharp edges of the bindings.
Luckily, I didn't have many gaps! It all came out nicely, and I was relieved. Here are a few quick photos (I just dampened the areas with a wet paper towel, so you can kind of see what it might look like with finish).
