What a valuable video! I enjoyed watching your craftsmanship immensely. Thank you very much.
First time I have seen a violin repaired.Enjoyed watching this video.
An atelier in Germany, a Brazilian luthier and narrated in English 😆😅 you gotta love globalization. Excellent repair job 👍🏼👏🏻👏🏻
Excellent Work young Lady!!!@16:30 the Violist showed happy expression with the sound, and she showed expression of Satisfaction.Nice Workmanship!! 100---100
Kelli de Souza...More Please....A skilled craftswoman is a pleasure to see.....Jeff
She is perhaps an apprentice but my complement to her craftswoman-ship came from watching the way she handled herself. The way she moved. I am a 43 years working manual machinist/toolmaker & it is so easy to spot skilled movements...some of the women I have worked with had far more thoughtful dexterity/manipulation than "skilled" fellows who had to overly muscle the delicate work. I thought that any asking on her part was just politeness or shop politeness. My impression was very positive of her work...Jeff
Ah sim, a menina esta de parabens!!!! Isto fica no Brasil?! toda a gente fala brasileiro! Pensava que era dificil encontrar ferramentas para as reparacoes, deve ser tudo da Europa, suponho...
VERY IMPRESSIVE YOU MAKE IT LOOK EASY . YOU ARE ALL GIFTED . THANK YOU FOR THE VIDEO.
nice details on the repair. The guy playing makes them sound great. thanks for the video.
Always great work in your videos. Thanks to you and the ladies for what you do.
Sensacional!!!
Muito obrigado!
Parabéns à Kelly!
Really nice craftsmanship!!!. Continued success with your artisanal craftsmanship and don't listen two the negative talking heads they just cant do what you are doing not even in there dreams .
Wonderful wonderful skills. Brilliant.
Interesting and well presented..!
At first it looked a little crude (not knowing any other way to take a violin apart). But as I watched there is definitely skill involved!! Thank you for sharing this:)
Do the cleats dampen the tone of the top. I know its a common practice but it seems they would effect tone some.
Thanks for the videos .I have learned a lot of tricks of the trade that i would have never thought of on my own.
Beautiful...and also the violin. :-D
wonderful
very excellent demo from Kelli! question for any musician and Kelli: for the test drive, what the main music being played by the gentleman/violinist 16:14 ~ 16:32? many thanks!
What is the mold solution mixture?
Is the procedure to cut down the cleats after installation to reduce the mass of the top plate, or is it just for aesthetics?
Kelli e' o nome dela ou o seu? Ela fez um otimo trabalho.
Kelli is her name or yours? She did an excellent job.
I would love to have her job!!
Como preparar a massa para moldar?
Do still bother making a mold anymore or just use a padded form now?
How did she clamp the "f" hole crack to keep it closed?
I am slowly catching up on all your violin repair videos, and they are wonderful. Please tell me you have at least from this point purchased and used a tripod? This looks like a mix between This Old House and Blair Witch Project :) Still loving what I am seeing
Kelli quem me dera arranjares o meu violino iria ficar como novo
What's in the mold mixture?
+John Scarborough I guess it is plaster.
missing any address / website where to apply to
mostly on ebay
The pretty women did a very good job, wonderful !
i am also a restorer. What polish did you use please? Also, I know a good way of taking off an old fingerboard. Hairdryers are the best invention as that is what I use with an old bone handled biggish butter knife. Just done one now. It took 7 minutes. Thank God the person who glued it used animal glue!!! I wish I had filmed it but I am on my own here. Please adopt me! I am useful and fast worker too. I hate taking the tops off violins though. I made mistakes when learning. I glue the top first outside with hottish animal glue and wrap with string the cracks, leave it for a few days to completely dry, then that old knife with hot water, v careful at corners, especially blocked violins. Rusty nails are a bloody nightmare! anyway, well done, a clean top taken off there luv!!! How to get those iron nails out please? any tips? Thank you x
@gina walker Hide glue is, for good reason, traditional. However, a modern adhesive can be satisfactory. Like hide glue, the bond must be breakable by the modest application of heat and, possibly, moisture. Epoxy, CA, and "waterproof" wood glue will not do. Original "TiteBond" seems to be OK and is used, with apparent success, by primarily fretted instrument luthier Jerry Rosa.
I need a woman like that for my Violin :D and for me ;)
Best regards from Norway
ya know it
;)
Jon Eirik Martinsen how much?
I need the repairer, not the woman...how much is the cost of this repair?
Wonder if she is a good cook..?
J b, cushion is pronounced coo-shun , not kaa-shun as is pronounced in this video.
The camera is so shaky, I can barely watch the video.
Wow, look at this girl, no wonder the guy shooting the video is breathing so heavy!! She's good though!!
