Building a Lute
Re: Building a Lute
In keeping with my general philosophy ,here are some of the tools i made/used for building
Under the reamed is my modified drill. I had to drill new bridge holes after the belly was glued on which proved tricky. A local vet and medical practice soon supplied hyperdermic neadles , it is good to live where we all know each other. I silver soldered a 1.3mm drill in the neadle and another adapter onto some SS tubing as an extension. It was surprisingly efficient with the small Diam tube to twist.
