Much better than V1, nice evolution ! If I could give you an advice, change your bridge : use hardwood (maple is the best that's what most bowed instruments' bridges are made of, oak and birch are also good from what I've tested) and make it thinner, say 3mm at the top part, max 8mm for the feet. This way you'll have more volume and the sound would be more defined !
What is it a base bar (3:15)? What is the function of this detail? Why does it have such shape and glued exactly at that place, not on symmetry axis, but aside?
the base bar is made out of softwood(pine, spruce, redwood, cedar etc) and it is used to help reinforce the soundboard and help distribute the vibrations evenly upon the soundboard. It is thought that making it thinner on the ends and rounded like that gives the instrument a better sound. It is off center because it needs to be under the lowest note string
You could add you playing a little without the woman's voice in the background. I really wanted to listen to the sound of the instrument. Quick question. Are you doing this to have the instruments for you? Are people interested in it? Thanks
Looks very cool and it's very beautiful and I love your workflow! I would have done some things a bit differently though. One is that I think that the bridge should be half as thick as the video. Another thing that I would do is to saw the top of the tuning pegs down to the sting hole, this would create this "U" shape which would make it easier to strap any kind of string on it :) Speaking of Tuning pegs I would also make the space under the tuning pegs and the playing area a bit closer, or make a top bridge on it, so that yu would be able to play the first half tones as well. But, all this being said, I actually learned a couple of things from this video which I will take with me in my next builds, so thank you so much for that :)
All I heard was the same cord over and over again. Don't you get a musical tune out f it? All the same noise with each swipe of the bow realy doesn't sound much like an instrument to me. Can you get an octaves worth of notes out of it on each string so you can play a tune?
@@RealHunterVR I agree, he wasn't pressing strings but what is the sense of making and having it unless a tune can be played on it? Make up one cord/4 string songs? 4 strings with a possible 4 string different sounds. With 4 strings, one might be able to play a corded like tune in a tuned-up key like tuning strings to C, F, G D. where both the key of C and G could be played.

Nice job! I appreciate your posting this, I was checking out violin parts kits yesterday for a potential winter project of building one of these.
Love the ole Timey Zydaco music!

it looks cool , what kind of strings are you using for this? any specific information?
They appear to be nylon fishing line judging by the look and sound of them

You ever make a 72 inch (6 foot tall) Tagelharpa??
Very nice!!!
What's the total width & length in inches? (Nobody shares those specs. I don't know why...)
It's about 2 feet (24in) in length, 6.5in in width, and 2in in depth

I wonder if it bends because of the tension with time...
Excellent build! I’m looking forward to my build as well! Please tell me, what is the song ID that starts at about 7:56?
Great video, just two questions, what should the scale length be and can I add a nut at the neck as well?
mine use 33cm (same as a violin) and I've put an oak nut on it but it's not usual.

The cigar box lyre
Whats the dimension of this instrument???
nice job
Do you mean Talgharpa?
Talharpa is another traditional name, just a different spelling pretty much
10:00 ?

I think it’s mainly because he wasn’t pressing any strings to form a chord
