    The strings are going the wrng way on the tension pins. They should be like an "S" with the pin on the lower loop of the S and the tuning peg on the upper loop

    Thank you for posting this. I really want a harp but don't have hundreds/thousands of dollars. Trying to get over my judgement of this model, you have made it look fun and worth it.

      yeah, harps are expensive! glad i got this one tho, it’s a really nice harp (especially for a beginner like me 😊)!

    If you use masking tape on the faces that aren't supposed to have glue on them, the glue will ooze out onto the tape, rather than be absorbed into the wood, so you can apply finish more easily without having to apply extra at those joints.

    Hello! I have to make a string instrument for a class project and really wanted to make a harp! I want to make it from scratch though, since that is the project. I looked at the kit and saw that they sell strings separately, but do you know what the things the strings go In are called? Thanks!! Awesome video!

      hello! “Cardboard Fireside Harp” is the name of the product on the website since the soundbox is cardboard. in the music industry, “cardboard” harps only refer to the soundbox, not the whole thing :)
