Your fiddles are always awesome I ant wait to hear it! I would like to hear the first fiddle you made with the 2x4!

Ha! Cool Rose. I might use a 2x6 for this next fiddle to give me a little more room - still in the planning stages.

Jim I can't wait to hear it! I picked up some boxes and am working on a 4 string mandolin. How funny!

Thank you Rose. I'm working on another 2x4 fiddle after seeing and hearing the nice one you made.

Sounds amazing. Cool Jim!

Yup Erasmo, it is funny how things go. While I was checking out some other Metis fiddlers I came across M. Riel's story which I read with interest. I love it when music takes me on a journey learning things that I never knew before. And yet, music is always the first to get cut when schools have a budget crunch! Yes! A coffee toast - not just to fiddles but to the magic of music!
