@ollej well, if you are not careful you'll end up like me: inked all over and a #HurdyGurdy hoarder 🤣

I’ve been gluing together a few pieces every day on my Nerdy Gurdy build. I had to buy some more clamps as the ones I built won’t work for any thin pieces. There’s a lot of waiting for the glue to dry with this build. But the frame is starting to take shape, which is exciting. But I’ve only done 24 out of 90 pages in the build manual.

As per instructions I’ve now been listening to Eluveitie while building.

Az önce seçkinin en sonuna Nigel Eaton tarafından 1 saat önce paylaşılmış yeni bir video yükledim.

Fakat bu seçkimi ilk video seçili olarak en başından paylaşmak istiyorum.

Mekanizmalara özel merâkım olduğu için Hurdy-Gurdy'e de kayıtsız kalamazdım.

Today I started gluing together the plywood pieces for the hurdy gurdy. I really hope I don’t mess up.

#NerdyGurdy #Fortran #HurdyGurdy #DIY

I have finished sanding all the plywood pieces for my Nerdy Gurdy Fortran build. Now I have started dry-fitting the main body to see how all the pieces fit together. It’s starting to look like half of a hurdy gurdy.

I should’ve changed sandpaper earlier, it was completely smooth before I realized it. But the coarse sandpapering of all the plywood pieces is done now.

Next up is doing the whole thing again with a finer grit sandpaper.

I’ve started to sandpaper the plywood pieces. So far I’ve sanded all 24 keys with a coarse grit sandpaper which took all evening. I will have to go over them again with a finer grit as well.

While waiting for the kit to arrive, I 3D printed parts for twenty glue clamps. I hope this will be enough. I also have a bunch of small clamps, and a few larger ones.

The glue clamps are made by the same guy who designed the Nerdy Gurdy. The 3D model is available on Thingiverse: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:6517348

I’ve started with the Nerdy Gurdy build. I’m taking it slow, today I just removed all the pieces from the plywood. There were quite a lot of pieces, so it did take a while.

@ollej finally somebody who listens to instructions 😂
@dec_hl I don’t want to make any unnecessary mistakes!

@dec_hl Those look really nice. I still don’t know how they are to play or if I’ll ever manage to learn how to play. So maybe I’ll manage to keep myself from buying more.
@ollej Do you have a link for the clamps?
Thank you!
@Siff Yes, it’s available on Thingiverse: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:6517348

@ollej may your build be joyous and your wood bending smooth!
@tomwsmf Thank you! It’s going to take me a while. I don’t think I’ve done a build this big before.
