Would it make sense to set up a Google or Yahoo Group just for makers and
those interested in building hurdy-gurdies? While I don't want to fracture the
group on this list, I wonder if a dedicaed group might not attract those who
don't want to participate on a general HG list. It would also allow those with
an interest in detailed building questions to discuss as much as they want
without overwhelming those who have an interest in playing only. My other
thought is that often enough I've seen people say that they'd take such a
discussion off list (like Marc proposes here), in which case the result of that
discussion is lost to anyone else who might be interested, while a Google group
would allow that to be recorded.
If there is enough interest in a builders' group, I'd be willing to set it up.
Best,
Arle

hi again...
the sound board question didnt seem to be very popular. so lets try
this.
regarding sympathetic strings any special rules such as length
spacing height from the sound board... do they have to cover the sound board
all the way ... ( i would imagine they would ) how do these issues affect tone
and volume.
who has them and how do you like them they seem to add just a wee
bit of echo i have only heard a sample on the web but not in a tune format just
in a single C note format....
any help?
peace
jim
