JBASHORUN -> I MADE A CEJILLA! (Jan. 23 2006 22:04:31)

I made myself a cejilla at college this week...

It is modelled after a Pedro De Miguel cejilla (kindly supplied by Errol- Flamencoguru) which was made from bone.

I changed the design by using oakwood instead of bone. The black and white layers are ebony and holly veneer, and I think the orange wood is mahogany.

Here is a picture:

another picture including the peg (which fits snugly thanks to a violin peg tapering machine!):

There- all done! [:)] I am currently working on a plane (for shaving wood, not flying!) that is made from boxwood, and fits into the palm of your hand.

That's awesome, James. Good job.




XXX -> RE: I MADE A CEJILLA! (Jan. 23 2006 22:30:07)

Wow, it looks nice [;)] ... it's so... wooden [:D] beautiful.




Guest -> RE: I MADE A CEJILLA! (Jan. 24 2006 7:08:03)

nice cejilla[:)]




Skai -> RE: I MADE A CEJILLA! (Jan. 24 2006 9:36:53)

Great! I'd like one of those! How about selling me one? [;)]




JBASHORUN -> RE: I MADE A CEJILLA! (Jan. 24 2006 10:02:28)

Well acxtually, this one is just a prototype. I plan to make more of them in the future, so that if the guitar making career falls through, I can sell cejillas instead!

But what I really want to do is try copying some of the conde style cejillas- some of them are reallycomplex.

If anyone knows of any good books or websites with more details on cejilla making please let me know!




Doitsujin -> RE: I MADE A CEJILLA! (Jan. 24 2006 11:18:38)

Why dont you design a special foro-flamenco cejilla in future?




JBASHORUN -> RE: I MADE A CEJILLA! (Jan. 24 2006 17:39:15)

Thats a good idea Doit... I might do it sometime.

Here are some pictures of the plane I made. I call it the "Mouse Plane" because it is small and shaped like a mouse... it even has a little "eye" made out of rosewood which is actually the crosspin to hold the blade wedge.

First pic:

JBASHORUN -> RE: I MADE A CEJILLA! (Jan. 24 2006 17:42:35)

second pic, shows the base. I still need to make a blade for the plane, and it will eventually sit underneath the wedge and protrude from the small slot you can see in the base:

JBASHORUN -> RE: I MADE A CEJILLA! (Jan. 24 2006 17:45:11)

last one, heres the front view, showing the blade slot with the wedge and crosspin block inside. The blade will be in there too eventually!

Peter (Gerundino),
Thanks for the PM. Your idea is EXCELLENT, and I think it would work very well with certain types, like you mentioned. It would also be quite easy to do... much easier than making the cejilla itself!
When I get a chance to try it out, I may even send you one to thank you for the inspiration.

Good luck with the sculpting... maybe you should try sculpting out of wood sometime!


Thanks again!


James




gerundino63 -> RE: I MADE A CEJILLA! (Jan. 24 2006 20:16:41)

Hi James,

Well, we are here to help eachother right?

Maybe I work in some wood in the future, wood is a very inspiring material.

Good luck, and if you use the idear, I would be honoured to have one!

Peter




koella -> RE: I MADE A CEJILLA! (Jan. 24 2006 20:56:26)

Ehm...sorry didn't get it. What idea are we talking about ?[&:]

Please tell us Jbashorun ...Peter ?




gerundino63 -> RE: I MADE A CEJILLA! (Jan. 24 2006 21:04:43)

Hi Koella,

It is not a secret, but all the world can read what we write here, so, to profit from something, and keep it among ourself, it is not wise to post everything everywhere.

But if anybody is really curious, send me an email, and I share it with you.

But it is no big deal whatsoever.

Peter




koella -> RE: I MADE A CEJILLA! (Jan. 24 2006 21:37:32)

Ok you will tell me sometime when we head it for strassburg or something[:D]




gerundino63 -> RE: I MADE A CEJILLA! (Jan. 24 2006 21:46:00)

Yeah right,

And now everybody wants to know what we are going to do in Strassburg LOL[:D]

Peter
