I'm currently building a symphony gurdy while I wait on my Orca I order
from hurdygurdy.com . I have Destrem and Heidemans book which says to hold a
sharp chisel in your left hand while turning the wheel, but it's very hard to
do this without the chisel moving. The wheel is only a hair off but I don't
want to mess it up when I true it up... Does anyone have info on how this is
done or another way to true the wheel. It's off so very little that you cannot
see it with your eye but when the wheel passes over the string you can feel a
very slight loosening of the tension... Thanks, Seth I'll put some pics
in photobucket to show what I'm making, lots of fun...
