Well maybe she would consent to be video taped after she has practiced a piece or two on the instrument. I am curious how it will sound. Been thinking of building one.

That looks like a nice little fiddle. Have you tried to play it yet? I hear they are effective at making cats scarce (if you play anything like I do). From your photos, it seems you have built a variety of instruments, all of which look right nice. Keep up the good work!

Well, let's have a peek at your Cigar Box Violin - post some photos. You know there is a group on Cigar Box Nation (CBN) that specializes in cigar box violins: CB Fiddles. They have some interesting photos and discussions. You should check them out if you haven't already. Diane in Chicago is the current champion builder, so be sure to check out her photos and discussions. Welcome aboard CBN.

-Rand.
