Fawkes -> RE: An Interesting Violin Repair (Apr. 5 2026 17:20:16) In the method I learned from Michael Darnton, bass bar work involves clamping the top to a stiff frame to keep it stable through all the steps.

Fawkes -> RE: An Interesting Violin Repair (Apr. 6 2026 15:25:21) On the one hand, they work so differently that analogizing between the two is thankless work. On the other hand, I read that the quietly amazing repair guy Yuris Zeltins has a repair technique for collapsing tops involving a brace, supported IIRC on the sides, which has minimal contact with the top.
