Poor !



The Sunday, February 9 snow to fine weather


The outside is a pure white snow scene.
I devote myself to favorite work in a room on such a day.

I repair the violin which I started from last week.
I cut the sound post which I bought by a mail order and 
sharpened it. I made the tool to fit a sound post on.
I sharpened the tumbler which I bought in
a 100-yen shop and made this appliance. 
 

I played the violin while changing the position of the sound post.
 I was surprised that a tone greatly changed
 at the position of the sound post.






Furthermore, I stuck one piece of resonant board of the violin
which had been broken. It is the figure which my violin
 is fixed to the clamp like last week, 

and is poor...

unday, February 9 snow


It was a snowstorm last night.
It is 20 years since the last such heavy snow.
Because my cat "Horyu" wanted to go out of the early morning 
in excitement, I let it go outside. 
He was surprised at such a heavy snow.
 In snow as most of the bodies were buried, 
he came home from a walk immediately.
 
And Horyu curls up in front of a stove and sleeps now.








He is getting treatment now.


It is fine on Monday, February 3, 2014


I start the repair of the violin which has become scattered.
Because the TOP board of the violin came off, I looked in the inside.
I was proved to be a musical instrument made in 1964.




I dissolved glia with a pan from morning.
I painted crazing carefully and fixed it with a clamp.
 My violin can not  get a motion with 5 clamps.




                             

Cracked!


Sunday, February 2, 2014 cloudy weather


It is a violin of the 3/4 size that I was presented by parents 
more than 50 years ago.
Those days are remembered clearly when I look at this violin.
Tone of the organ which mother played... 
a smell of the baked apple which was fragrant from an oven,
and  spring gentle sunlight that entered through 
the curtain of the race.




Unfortunately the top of the violin cracks.
It grew big for several years.
I made up my mind to repair this damage.

I heated the list board with three places of cracks with a dryer
 and tore it off.I cannot readily tear it off because of the glia 
gluing this together well.

Oh!....Bad! 
I have broken up!




It is a right theory of The repair to completely tear off a list board, 
but it tries repair partially because it is impossible.

I seem to be devoted to this repair work for the time being.
