Etsy Shop for Instruments strings and other accessories: https://www.etsy.com/uk/shop/Thelyreshop To let the soundboard vibrate more while maintaining structural stability, we thicken and angle the area at the bottom. We also add a foot to the bottom of the playing area for structural reasons, following the Trossingen lyre as a guide. More videos will follow, feel free to leave comments or questions on the video or email me for more information. Latest work at Instagram:
