Currently it’s stringed with 1/2 viola strings, tuned C-G-D-A. Body and neck are carved from a single block of maple. No soundpost, only a bass bar. After varnishing, I’ll attach a standard violin chinrest and Wittner integrated shoulder rest, so it can be played like a regular violin.

    Yes, the router templates, glueing clamps and two dozen jigs and templates I used are all 3d printed. 100% worth it.
