Making a Violin with HAND TOOLS: Commandeering Strad's Titian

This is why I never short sell any of my woodworking. . My time my skill may material is all worth money

Narration explaining what and why he's doing would be useful in understanding what is happening.

The deliberate hand movements reveals the confidence in muscle memory and time of dedication to a skill that it takes to create an instrument. Great lighting, video angles, also reveals a talent for artistic expression and the ability to make an appealing and mesmerizing capture of time. What a wonderful visual of time it is with both camera and construction talent together to share.

Tremendous patience and tenacity and love.....astounding

Haha Thats the smallest plane Ive ever seen

Why aren't you making a single piece back and top sound board ? It seems, to me, more accurate for sound and solidity. Great work. Thanks for sharing !!!

There's a lot of tools I would not use in there. Idk why someone would use a razor sharp edge to shape it by edge, and, then, use a wood file to reshape it as it should as been from the beginning. isn't more accurate. It's all about marking and having a eye to see the perfect shape gradually.

Excellent work & video

Could have done without the drums.

I was already protective of my violin, but after watching this…..I won’t let anyone or anything touch it. I owe it to the maker

15.46 vinyl glue?

This is a great work...Why isn't there a school for building these structures people could attend? Its a needed skill all over the world and great for school and university curriculum .

Beautiful!!!

Bravo!!!!🪅👏🏼🎻👏🏼🪅

I was a cabinetmaker for 20 years and know what it takes to do this kind of work He is at another level. I love some of those little clamps. Also the video is superb

terrific--but what about making one leaving in all the chisel marks

How does one even learn such a skill? It would take thousands of hours.
