DBurns Posted July 28, 2011 Report Share Posted July 28, 2011 I have been following Jim McKean's Blog on making a new viola, and after a long summer break, part 6 is now being posted. I thought that some here might benefit from seeing this blog, so I started this thread. Jim McKean's Blog Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scordatura Posted July 29, 2011 Report Share Posted July 29, 2011 Read most of the blog posts about the viola and cello. Some interesting points about violin making. Pretty well written too. I enjoy his preferance/exploration of poplar and willow vs the maple dominance. He also does not shy away from slab cut backs/sides. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
