This is the first time I got to hear some violin-like sounds come out of this wooden box that I’ve been working on for almost a year now. This is an Amati model, the second violin I started at school, but it got set-up first. Still got a few things to fix on it before I can really call it done. My first violin should be done in the next month, and my viola soon after.
I’ll do a proper photo shoot with the newborn soon.

You and your new baby are adorable!! Congratulations friend.
Well done! It’s a great feeling to hear those first notes, and puts into perspective all the hours spent making it.
I hope it has given you the inspiration to push on with the others!
