Construction of 4 prototype Neapolitan harpsichords

 

Preparing to cut and glue the soundboard bridge

 

Fitting the bridge in position and marking it out to cut to length.  The large cutoff bar and the marking out tool (a section of the bridge with the rear surface cut away up to the moulded edge) for marking out the inside edge of the bridge can both be seen on the left.
