Hi Richard,

It's fun, if you have the time. All the plans are in the box and everything is cot to size, but, you have to read the plans several times first and make sure that you use the right glues.
The one I did was a take over job from someone who had lost interest. It was only after the job was completed and two years had gone by that the thing started falling apart. White glue is not good enough and personally I think if I do it again I would seriously consider using some metal joiners to give the whole structure more strength. But it was fun and a very rewarding experience.

  Hi, list,
    Has anyone put together a harpsichord kit? A piano teacher has approached me on puttting together one. I don't think I want to do it. What do you think?

  Richard
