Feb 12,13,14:

Making a bridge for tentative continue:

Drawing dimension of "Arch" bridge which is the bridge tested on Feb 11 and 12.

Making the bridge from Karin wood (the red wood).

Spent hours for shape the bridge and fitting for the body top.

Adjustment of the bridge which is bending under the tension of the string and the angle of the foot bottom are especially difficult.

Through the testing, this bridge provide big sound by body vibration with an effect like an echo.

A foot was specially put in the center of the bridge for encounting the bridge bending. However, the foot change the sound. The vibration of the unstable bridge may make an echo like sound.

 

Note: Got phone call from wood factory/supply that body/neck wood are prepared.

 

Mac still rest.
