I have been under the spell of the Hurdy Gurdy for about a year now, ever since I saw one on the cover of my brother-in-law’s luthier magazine. I am a mechanical engineer by trade and a woodworker by hobby and have made several unique things. I absolutely insist on making unique things that are difficult or near impossible to sell. I simply wouldn’t have it any other way.
Anyway, I have decided that I need to build a Hurdy Gurdy and would like some help selecting the one that would be best to make. You probably get this request a lot. I do have access to a machine shop and my own woodworking shop and can read prints, etc. There are several sources of free prints, but I am not sure which Hurdy Gurdy to make. Actually, I am willing to pay for a decent set of prints if I need to. I have no musical inclination and don’t know diatonic from fully chromatic keybox or other such things, but I bet I could build one. Anyway, I would prefer to build from scratch because I know what the kits cost and can’t really go there. Any help you can provide would be appreciated. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "hurdygurdy" group.
