Below are some photos of a repair job that
Zai performed in early 2009. The task was to remove the top plate,
adjust the base bar of the violin, and finally, glue the top plate
back on. It is a very delicate process with a great end product
- suitable for use at concerts such as o2
priority gigs.
1. Removing the top plate
2. Repairing the base bar
3. Preparing to glue the top plate back on
4. Waiting for the glue to settle
Here are some photos of Zai hand carving and attaching the purfling
of a new back plate.
