During the 1970s through the mid 1980s I built violins (both modern and Baroque), violas (one model of my own design), cellos (one that went into the Oregon Symphony), viols da gamba (one went into music department at Oregon State University), and viols d'amore (one of which also went into the music department at OSU.)

The images below show my current projects: a violin, based on a model by Guarneri Del Gesu, and a large viola, a model of my own design.
