    Thanks Diane,  I was inspired when I saw your violin, and was impressed by Steve Millers' style.  So that is called cradle style, I didn't know that.  It took a while to make but I am very happy with it.  don't know if I will ever make another as I'm not much of a violin player.   I like the mandolin, I can stay in tune.  appreciate your liking it as you've done alot of building.

    Neat. I like seeing how other people are making fiddles. One day I'll carve my own neck. Great work!
