Just saw this site...
http://www.wood-carver.com/violin.html
Sounds like this could save a lot of time... but is it really any good?
Cheers, Mat

i guess you'd have to look at a few things:

1) do you have an arching template that you love so much that you'd want to copy over and over again?

2) have you recently won the lottery so that you can afford to buy this?


Very Happy

1- would it not be fairly easy to create a basic mould of greater thickness than needed and then just finish carve and scrape to suit.
2-Did not check the price but i just bought another ticket! sooo... just maybe!
