Hello, all.

I'm John LaTorre, a VERY novice builder and player. I've been putting together a Stewart-Macdonald 4/4 kit, realized I didn't know beans about violins, so bought a used Florea Oradea with designs of teaching myself. I have a bazillion questions, and hope to get answers to some of them from the wonderful people in the forum here.

Cheers, Mat

You're on! But I'll post my first question over on the builder's side, to allow more people to respond.

Thanks to both of you for your warm welcome.
