Hi Bill

Love the video, would like to see much more of the construction techniques used as I am considering making my own harpa. What advise would you pass on to a raw builder beginner, and how hard is it to learn to play the instrument.

All right Bill! Fun to see you and hear you talk about you nyckelharpa building and playing. Can't wait til I can see you in person again, the Great Mr. Youtube Famous Nyckelharpa Maker and Player Bill Dahl.

I loved your video. I am in the process of building a nyckelharpa myself. It would be wonderful if you were to show more of your building process. Wonderful indeed...
