i didn't expect, and am delighted to find, the comedy along with the tutorial
Thank you for these videos!
I wish my hair removals were so smooth.
I get glued-in plugs more than often.
Thank you Oliviu! I know that feeling unfortunately... Keep faith!
What excellently done tutorials! Slow motion, pauses, to help understand etc. Plus, the 'Crown Jewels' are the comic 'clips' and occasional wise cracks that appear in your videos. I'm about to rehair a bow for myself for the first time since the 1970's, long before youtube existed. I've watched quite a few now and I'm 'Sticking' with you (pun intended with a bit of American slang thrown in). 'Hope those parentheses translate ok (?). Thanks for your time and effort!
Oh thank you so much! Very kind of you you made my day!
Thank you for this excellent video! A friend gave mea very old violin, which needs new strings, bow rehairing, and some cleaning up. I don't play (yet, though I play other strings) but the cost either of a new bow or rehairing was a bit prohibitive. Thanks to you I can attempt it on my own.
Thank you for this nice and knowledgeable video!!!
Thank you very much, a very helpful tutorial.
You've removed the cork (kind of wooden plug) at the tip so easy with no trouble. It looked so loose, am i right?
This is an excellent video...love it.
Thank you! I love you! It was helpful for me!
Very helpful video, thanks! When is the bow making tutorial coming out? I'm interested in trying!
Thank you James! Really can't tell when :)
can we reuse the wedge if is taken out without any damage? the same for the piece used in the tip?
Really amazing video valuable
Thank you
Well done once again our favourite yt bow mentor, bravo! (Pls say hi to Monica) 😉
Thank you Rick! A pleasure to read that! I said hi to her ;) should I bring Monica back to my videos?? Who is for it who is not?
First like dem watch. Bravo Maestro.
My pleasure thank you
Lucky you. I always get the bow with the large plug that takes forever to remove.
Brilliant video, the tip wedge is refusing to move so I will use my chisel !
I use exactly the same vise that you have. I bought it many years ago from an electronic surplus reseller... I think it comes from Russia. But, sometimes I have to get rid of the wedge before I can remove the ferrule, so I use a modified purfling chisel for that. Removing hair from inexpensive school grade bows is so annoying and all the plugs must be chiseled away.
Thank you for your videos!
Thanks for sharing. It indeed takes lots of work removing hair, reshaping mortises to be able to be rehaired, from inexpensive factory bows.
@@GillesNehr I am now employed at Atelier Tranin in Lyon, the firm from the late Frederic Tranin. I know about your bows from my friend, Michele Dobner from Cremona. I would like to visit your workshop when I can.
but,if the slide is very difficult to move ,such as use any method waste two hours not remove the pearl slide,how to do then?
What is the name of the tool you use to know how much hair you need?
You can use the Kägi ferrule saver at schilbach shop. It prevent damage on the ferrule :)
It's not just about preventing marks on the ferrule put how straight it is pulled out so the ebony tong is not at risk
@@GillesNehr sorry I wanted to answer to a comment. This should not be a regular comment. But yeah youre right! With any devices it is important to pay attention :) I like your humor on insta videos haha beautiful bows!!
@@Vietitier Thanks! :)
Bonjour,
très bons tutos ,mais avez-vous les mêmes en français ?
Merci beaucoup hélas j'ai dû faire un choix de la langue pour être accessible à un plus grand nombre de personnes :(
Put a couple of water, then it will be very easy to take of the ferrule. Even without any tools but with your fingers.
Oh my God.... I'm covered in glue.
Before watching your video I tried removing the bow hair by pulling it and there is glue all over my left hand and my violin's neck!
Oh when you cut the hair, I was cringing! 😮😣😣😣
... From the kingdom of Strings
You've been executed many strings at once, they lost their Crown 🤭😭
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Thair is just still good, no rosin residue, not sticky, dirty, or even oily! Omg im feel so sorry for the hairbow
@@Adrian_AdamViolonDiGerma-tm3nq Hair can be worn down even if it is not visibly dirty. (My bow is this way, haha. It is so hard to play on, it is slippery and the rosin doesn't stick to it for long.) Of course, I can't say whether or not Nehr's bow has worn hair or actually new hair on it. But it is possible that it is simply worn down hair of a violinist who washes their hands.
