    A maestro in his own right. What a pleasure to watch and listen to his story.

    That was beautiful. This is a man who chose a profession to bring more beauty into the world (meanwhile I've got about eight unfinished projects just laying around).

    What makes a Violinist a Virtuoso is the Luthier who is also a Virtuoso of his craft. The sharp eye, the keen mind, the soft and yet firm hands, of the skilled Luthier, make music in its own right. each shaving, each stroke, each carving makes the sounds of music to his ears. . Oh! too much love for this way too late. ECF

    Yes, I am sure of what he said. The gratification of hearing it played and it manages a played well status, is what makes every hand cramp, shaving scrape, every ill-placed drip of varnish, or finger burn, worth every second of hard work. It's because it's loving work.

    Cool video. The tree is the first participant in this process. The luthier is the second. I prefer to call them builders, not makers. Only Nature makes. Luthiers are builders because they put together the different parts into one object.
    On that note, I’d love to own one of his violins!

    What days or weeks? Took him about 5 minutes to make that violin!
    Jokes aside, what an awesome profession. I want to encourage one of my kids to become a luthier.

    I don’t think you can still come close to the golden age violins due to the quality and age of the wood. Wood is over harvest and extremely hard to find hundreds of year old wood.
    Density is key.

      In my practice, although mostly as a guitar maker, this could be used either as a way to soften the hot hide glue (traditional animal protein-based glue) in seams that have gelled a little too quickly, or to again, soften the glue, in order to clean out some squeeze-out of glue from clamped joints. ua-cam.com/video/NWum3Lmg7Do/v-deo.html

      Personally I’m not a fan of relicing. But I see it’s appeal. I always say if you want to relic a. Instruments, lend it to a teenager for a week.

    Do you have curved, one piece clamps that fit the shoulders and butt of the violin? If so how did you make them? Please.

    • @aniquinstark4347
      @aniquinstark4347 2 роки тому +1

      You could lightly glue two boards together and use a bandsaw to cut the curved profile into both of them so that you have two identical halves to act as a sort of mold for building a violin in.

      That's generally how it works. A custom maker like this doesn't have standard models available for purchase whenever. You order exactly what you want and he makes it so the price varies a lot.

    Why on earth do you try to make it look old? Signs of age should be added by the owner over the years. Relicing is just sad.

      I couldn’t agree more. I’ve never bought a new violin, but if I ever do, by god, I want it to look new!
