Cannon scroll copy
Просмотров 7248 лет назад
Carving a copy of the scroll, from Paginini's famous Guarneri "Cannon" violin. The visible difference in length of scrolls between the photo of the original, and that of the of copy, is due to camera distortion. The scroll length of the original is 109.25 mm, which is what the copy is made to. The painting is of Paganini, who was strongly linked to the devil in his time, mostly out of showmansh...

Violin maker James Robert makes copy of Henri IV Amati Viola 1590. Brief history of instrument
תודה רבה על ההשקעה. תבורך. האם אתה בונה כינורות? איפה אתה נמצא ?
This is wonderful! But in reality unless you have trained very extensively to get that amazingly sharp knife, know how much to take off, and know how to fit nearly a perfect 90 degree angle while fixing both feet simultaneously, and trust your hands to give you a good base, then it will not turn out how nice it does! Fitting these things by hand takes dozens of bridge templates to learn, maybe hundreds for perfection! I’ve used a similar method for soundpost fitting, yet that is even more finicky than the fitting here since you have height to consider in extremely small margins of error. Nevertheless, a real master makes his art look easy, and it certainly looks like it here.
Awesome, work of art, thank you.
How long does it takes to master a bridge and pegs fitting?
TO FIT THE BRIDGE ON THE VIOLIN ONE NEEDS PATIENCE. OUR LUTHIER HAD DEMONSTRATED IMPECCABLY WELL. MY HATS OFF TO HIM...
Very nice bridge installation
Excellent workmen ship
for sale?
Excellent tutorial
No audio? . . . . . NO DICE! GOOD BYE!
Awesome! Thanks for posting
A very noisy video! 🤣🤣 It wasn’t complicated by narration, good for teaching. 👍
bridge should be placed with stamp on it towards fingerboard
Scary Sharp tools!
Excellent video, your attention to detail is inspiring. I especially liked the scribe tool you used to mark the initial heights of the g and e strings. Marking the feet with colourant is an excellent tip as well. Thank you.

Wonderful! wich kind of color do you use? i mean the red color: what is it? thank you very much for this video!
Something's wrong with the sound. I can't hear anything. And... why didn't you just take a picture of your knuckles?
What height should the bridge be
Isn't your fingerboard just a tad thick??
Ah. Now I see why I was told it takes about three hours.
very helpful, thanks.
I agree would be very helpful if sound was added and the dimensions he uses were explained. Still very helpful
Could you tell what you applied on 2:39 ?
What is this material that you put on the mi rope?
Gut. It is more practical to make an v shape ebony or mammoth bone inlay under the e-string.
Now I know why my violin sounds sucks, the brio
This is Perfecto
I just carved a bridge on a $15 violin from salvation army. So much fun
Excellent video James thanks. I'm very impressed with your hand planing skill. I'm a student luthier and having great difficulty with planing.
Really nice video. Thank you, sir.
Did anyone else try to blow the wood chips away?
Why don't they make it the right shape to begin with?
Deafened with the silence of this video
What kind of varnish do you use to check feets leveling, also I'd like to know the glue used at the end? Thank you Sir, you do amazing works, I'm following, keep posting.
I think it was peg oil from Hill and Sons
Titebond glue
Amazing! It would be so interesting hearing your opinion about how each one of those "small" changes affects the sound of the violin
Does anyone know what kind of "paint" he puts under the feet of the bridge to show what parts need to be cut down?
Miss you!
One other way to adjust the feet of the bridge is by putting a piece of sandpaper on the violin and carefully running the bridge back and forth over the sandpaper until the feet are flush with the violin
OMG so great
what is the measure of the pen you mark 2 with it 2 point on the bridge ??
You use two tools, one is a ros with a nail at the end to mark two sighns on the bridge on both side of it and the other tool is a some preshaped form which you use to mark the full edge shape on the bridge. How did you make these tools ?
I followed the video step by step to fit a cheap bridge. I used a sharp exacto knife, a 80 and 100 grit sandpaper and a bridge template I found online. For being my first time it turned out quite decent. I need a sharper knife to try it again on a more expensive bridge.
Hello, can anyone tell me what the big and small measurement he uses on the compass are? Also what kind of paper was used for the small string?
Parchment paper is typically used under the string to prevent the string from cutting into the bridge with tuning. He's using the compass to find his center point and then from there he's measuring the distance between each string for where he should cut the string notches - Utah Luthier
Hello. For a full sized violin a common spacing from the G to E is about 34 mm. You can find the location of the other two strings by dividing that by 3 (11.33 mm).
excelente muy buen video saludos desde mexico
Hi James Robert,excelente!!!
Sehr Gut!!
Another mute video! What is the goop you smear on the violin?
Came here for instruction. Without the sound it’s kind of useless
what is the thought behind priming the edges, then re surfacing them before the final glue up ? raising the grain to eliminate high spots during final glue up ?
Over time the wood structure can draw the glue away from the actual join, making it weaker and allowing it to possibly open later on. Many luthiers like to size/prime the joint surfaces with glue to reduce the chance of this, so it can’t draw in as much from the proper joint glue This issue is particularly with end grain, which REALLY draws in anything with moisture (including glue). An example of this is the joint of the neck root to the body, it is end grain to face grain, and so luthiers will saturate that area with thinned glue until it won’t accept any more!!
Sir.. one dbt. What is the measure for distance we have to keep.. for the strings . Here....
