That’s so cool looking. I may never build a violin, but I might just carve a peghead/scroll, they are such an visually interesting thing.You sure are doing a nice job with these!

Thanks Kevin
I am enjoying the new challenge. The plate arching is giving me practice for when I start my archtop guitar.

I purchased all the materials in Jan 2018 and still have not started it....but soon, very soon.

This is now strung up in the white, as they say.
It is lighter in weight than my first two and has nice resonance. I'll let it sit for awhile before stripping it down for varnishing
