Working on It

A Joyful Sound

Quiet Mornings & Unheated Workspaces

The winter chill is making it difficult to enjoy the pleasures of woodworking. In the mornings as I wait for the temperature to approach something close to bearable, I have been designing a new instrument, my take on the obsolete mandolin-banjo, sometimes referred to (incorrectly) as a banjolin.

Late mornings and afternoons are spent jigging up, then it's back inside for hot tea.
