I could not find your earlier pix. Do you have a dowel running through the box?

I put in a traditional "bass bar", running the length of the top on the bass side of the bridge, and also a soundpost on the treble side.

Yeah, there won't be any video for a while, I've been sort of painfully figuring out the finger placement.  I do play mandolin a bit, that helps.

Can you post all these photos in the fiddle group?  For posterity?

Glad to oblige... Could you send an actual fiddle player by my house?     Hehe... It's gonna be a while, I fear.

LOL. You should go to a violin class with your fiddle and see their response.
