Mea Culpa.
As said earlier, everything presented so far has been in its
nature a hypothesis, reaching toward an understanding of classical Italian
violin family design and making methods.
I started looking seriously at violin making around 2009, and this
research began in earnest two years later.
It’s now been about a year since I started making the results
public. The research has of course
continued, and the ideas have developed and changed to some degree.
