Making A Beautiful Violin is Easier Than You Think You don't have to be a professional luthier to build a handsome hand-crafted violin. All you need are just a few common tools, wood, and the simplified violin-making process found inside the newly revised and updated Violin Making. The early version of this book helped many first-time instrument makers build their own stunning violins-and their beautiful work is displayed inside in a new color photo gallery. Author and lifelong teacher Bruce Ossman uses his simple techniques and clear instruction to guide you through every single step of making a violin. With the full-size patterns and detailed illustrations include, you will be on your way to crafting an instrument fit for an orchestra.

Ossman, Bruce: - Bruce Ossman is a retired teacher who resides in West Chester, PA. His love of classical music (especially that of the baroque era) and his interest in simplifying the overwhelming art of violin making inspired him to publish his book, "Violin Making: A Guide for the Amateur."
