Very nice job on this repair. I do this for my living and I was really impressed by your knowledge and attention to detail. Much better repair than some “professional” repairs I’ve seen. And to be honest, I learned a few things and gave me a few ideas on future repairs! So, thank you!

Wow thank you! I must admit that any knowledge I have is from KZbin but any skill I have is from screwing things up in the past and not giving up. 😂 your compliments do mean allot. This would be different conversation if I showed you the car I painted for my sister. 😂 (sorry Jen). Thanks again! ❤️ 🎻

Thank you very much. I’ve always like to work with my hands and it may be obvious that this is the first time I’ve ever worked on a musical instrument 😂 The funny thing is I just searched around on KZbin. All the other makers out there I think you’re a great influence. I’m always willing to try something new. Adam Savage from MythBusters said many times “failure is always an option.” I think failure is also a great opportunity to learn. And another great influence to me is Dug from SV seeker. If you haven’t seen his show you should check it out. kzbin.info/www/bejne/gYjIaGh8drJrd7M

@@fieromike1 I'm always amazed by what a luthier will charge for such work; they often make it seem like it take super human capabilities to carry out repairs and that you 'SHOULD NOT TRY THIS AT HOME'...LOLZ. Mike where did you get the 'patch' from? Anywhere in particular I could purchase one?

@@cesarllanos9975 I would agree it is amazing. However I always need to remember that what you are paying for is a person’s experience. I am a contractor by trade. After almost thirty years I kind of know what to expect when I rip your bathroom apart. It wasn’t always like that. The first bathroom I did wasn’t too profitable but I got it done. I am sure that most people could figure it out but I would suggest that they should at least get the advice of a professional. I was ready to fail with this project, and honestly I finished it the way I did because I kind of knew I was in over my head as far as the finishing work went. Anyway...😂 ...to answer your question. The Veneer that I used to patch the inside was from a scrap of 1/4” luan plywood that I sanded down to about half it’s thickness. After it was glued to the inside of the cello I sanded it down even further. And yes you should try this at home! How else can we learn? 😉

It seems you used a regular table knife to open the toop piece?😂 or you use something special?
