Building a Cello

Bass bar part IV

3/6/2020

I finished the bass bar today. No tuning involved. I trusted Strobel's bass bar profile scaled down to 1/2 cello. I did the rough work using the finger planes and finished with some sandpaper. The bass bar is roughly semi-circular at the ends and more elliptical in the centre. The ends of the bass bar are cut at ~45° angle.

    My son is outgrowing his cello soon. Could there be a better reason to learn how to make one :).
