    How was the upright bass in the end, do you have an update on how it looks when it was completed.

    Out of wonder, what is the jig you use in 8:06 to cut the purflings?

    Fabulous. I'm trying to find one of your instruments for sale. How long does it take, from first cuts to finished instrument?

    Thank you for following along! It takes about 3-4 months to finish one. My current wait list is about 5 years, so unfortunately don’t have anything currently for sale.
