The Reader Gallery is the place for you to show the progress you're making with your harpsichord build. To view the slideshow, simply click the "Reader Gallery" tab at the top of the screen. If you'd like to include your photos in the slide show, just e-mail them to me and I'll add them to the show. The show will automatically update as new photos are added. Currently, the slide show features the work of Neal Carey who has completed the first nine chapters of the e-book. Congratulation to Neal on his progress and flawless execution. Well done!
The Video Page will contain videos dealing with the building process. These videos will feature techniques that differ from those described in the Harpsichord Project E-Book. As I mentioned in my previous post, there are many different ways to accomplish tasks, and I will show you as many alternative methods as I can. The current video, by master builder Kevin Fryer of San Francisco, shows a procedure to bend the bentside without laminating and without the need for a bentside jig. Kevin uses a custom made bending iron to bend a solid poplar bentside blank. Fascinating! Click the "Video" tab at the top of the screen to watch this well made video.
Hopefully, these features will be inspirational as well as informative. Their success depends on your participation and continued interest. We're looking forward to your input and ideas.
