El Kiko -> RE: Nice violin making video (Aug. 31 2015 16:21:37)

I got to hand it to you guys its such a labour of love , so fiddley (no pun) and so many chances of things going wrong and breaking ... we need a more realistic video of a luthier putting the chisel straight through the back plate or cracking the side .. and hence a stream of choice words can be beeped out ... but really it is good and must be a great sense of achievement to finish one .. guitar or violin. and remember it will still be around and playing long after the maker is gone ... i really dont know how you guys do it .. i was so pleased when i made my curvey ash wood mantelpiece recently 1.6 mts by 7 cm deep ..awsome anyway , also the playing of an instrument you just finished, thats got to be a special moment ... and a lot of worried listening ... how do you celebrate /? anything special .. or , like him , just say ..well thats one violin .. and then start another..? its just something not anybody can do and to do it well , even less people ... and yet behind every musician is an instrument or 2 wood has such a nice smell too , but maybe it would be easier to work with plastic sheets .. easier to cut and bend , and glue together ... and a big range of colours available ...
