Fiddling

One of my favourite presents from the holidays. My husband found this over a century old fiddle and he is restoring it for me. Violin restoration is a new thing for him and he has the outside looking incredible while still maintaining it's character (no after pictures yet). The placement of the sounding pin is supposed to be pretty tricky. Apparently if it is 1 mm out of the place the fiddle can sound like a screaming cat. It has to be better than the howling dog when I currently try to play!




A talented young lady Lindsey Sterling. Not only can she play a mean violin but she can dance at the same time!

I am eager to see the finished product. The woman in the fiddling video must be double jointed!

Great photos of the violins.
