Violin neck from start to finish - Manico di violino dall'inizio alla fine

A condensed version that shows the system I use for the violin neck.
I apologize for the low resolution of the images, these are old videos but the working method is still the one I currently use. Anyone wishing to go into more details of the various operations can refer to the 9 videos of the complete series (link below).

당신의 제작을 보고 있으면 감탄이 나옵니다. 너무 배우고 싶어요.

I see that you often work with cutting or filing at a series of angels, and then you blend the angles into round or whatever shape you wish, as in the edges of the plates Thank you for this

[@DavideSora]

Yep, it is a technique that helps improve control over rounded shapes

Muchas gracias por compartir su trabajo, estoy escribiendo con lagrimas en los ojos por la belleza de lo que muestra.

You are doing great. Delicate work. It seems that the master Antonio Stradivari is working.

How are you, sir? I can't find quality tools in my country. Could you share with me which main rasps and files you use? (Brand, graduation, etc.). Thanks in advance and greetings from Brazil.

[@DavideSora]

My rasps and files are very old, the files are F&D brand which I don't think exists anymore, the rasps were handmade in Bulgaria, I don't know if they are still available. However, any brand of files can be fine, for example other good brands are Baiter and Vallorbe. For rasps I suggest you look at the Pechar site which has excellent quality rasps: pechar-rasps.com/en/ The cut (graduation) is the fine one. For files, the number used is different from brand to brand, for mine it is n.3 which was the finest. The rasps are fine cut too, which incidentally are also the most expensive, the same goes for the numbers as for the files, however, my rasps are cut 5 or even cut 7 (very fine)

@@DavideSora Thanks for the answer. I don't know why, but YT deleted my previous answer. Thank you for sharing this content so rich in details. Do you know Corradi files and rasps?

[@DavideSora]

@@josemauricio8763 I know the Corradi company but have never tried their files and rasps. However, they seem to have a good reputation and good value for money too.

Very Useful, Mamny thanks. Can you kindly provide the dimensions for the 3 neck templates you use to adjust the curve?

[@DavideSora]

They are three simple arcs of circles with width (diameter) of 25mm, 28mm and 30mm respectively. I want to clarify that do not represent the actual shape of the finished neck but they only serve to have a circular reference to maintain symmetry on the two sides. The true shape of the finished neck will be more like an ellipse rather than a circle, i.e. you will see light passing on both sides of the template by superimposing it to the neck. The final shape of the neck must be evaluated by feel of the hand and fingers, it's not possible to simply reproduce the shape of a template to get optimal dimensions. It's a very personal thing, some prefer it more like a circle, others more like an ellipse, others even more triangular. A semicircular neck will give the impression of a thick neck, good if one has large hands, the closer the section is to a triangle the more the feel will be of a thin neck, but it's really just a matter of the player's preference.

Форма всегда зависит от звука, я нашёл эту связь. 1.нужно изменить свойства дерева, 2.деки максимально гармонизировать,я утверждаю что гармония возможна только из свойства гравитации. 3.пружина должна не забирать на себя энергию струны, а наоборот накапливать и так стабилизировать звук и усилия скрипача. 5.очень важно точное количество дерева на корпусе обечаек,особенно верхний и нижний клоц.6.поверхность,внутри дек должна быть значительно больше наружной.7.нужно использовать модулирующие свойства грифа в всего вспомогательного .это обеспечивает красоту тембра, мягкость и чистоту. 8.необходимо сбалансировать звук и устранить потери, подставка,душка,подгрифник, подбородок. Это касается всех деталей. Когда я вижу детали скрипки с прямым углом? В природе это очень редко бывает. 10.ну и много других нюансов нужно использовать для защиты звука от невежества плотника.

Any idea what song is at 6:47? It's so good!

Hello Maestro Davide. Firstly, a word of thanks and appreciation for the effort you made in producing these beautiful videos. Without words you have visually emphasized so many important details of your process. Question: what radius is the compass set to when you draw the two arcs from the reference points to the back of the heel (see kzbin.info/www/bejne/hmOxn6aXjZqtg8U) I'm thinking any measure that creates left and right arcs to check symmetry? Thank you.

[@DavideSora]

The measurement to be set on the compass is 26 mm, I indicate it in these two videos where you can see how to use it in more detail: 1) kzbin.info/www/bejne/oJewl5WhqaasosUsi=Ek1rMuPoKtAMbhLW 2) kzbin.info/www/bejne/r4HOiHx5druiY9Esi=jqIgz2xxs7JWGnpR (English translation of the Italian text with timestamps on the description page) It is a measurement that is used to establish the curve of the heel at the point where the violinist's thumb stops, which gives him a quick and precise reference for the intonation of the high positions

Thank you Davide!
