Here are some photos of a 5 string I have finished the varnish process this week. After the varnish cures enough I will rub it out and do the set up work and ship it off to it's new owner. |

Barry, That's very nice - lovely fiddleback figure on the scroll and violin back. |

Beautiful, Barry. You are really punching them out. They must be great violins.

Thanks for the kind words. It takes me about 6 weeks from start to finish. I have 4 going at a time. |

Looking great Barry, I've just started the rubbing out stage for the varnish on mine, in fact I've just cleaned some rottenstone and oil off my hands! Everyone should have a go at a violin. Attachment: 008 (5).jpg Attachment: 013 (2).jpg Colin |
