I glued on the side pieces to the scroll head and the tail block. Tomorrow, if I have time, I’ll measure out the top pieces and cut out the heart sound holes.

What is this? The tail block of the mountain dulcimer I’m making. There’s a lot of things that can go wrong making this. Zoom

I already received the dulcimer kit from Stewart Macdonald. That was fast! The parts and wood are very high quality. One thing that concerns me though is that the top and bottom are uncut, and I don’t have a band saw. The directions say to use a sharp knife (5 or so cuts) after you trace out the design, but I don’t see that working. Might be an excuse to buy some power tools! Zoom
