Drilling the side pieces

Drilling the side pieces

I sawed these pieces from 1/8' sheet brass, screwed them together for smoothing the edges - files, sander, elbow grease. I kept them together for drilling the tuning pin holes. The tuning pins on the original were evenly spaced along the curve meaning that as the curve changes so does the string spacing. I altered the spacing so it will be more like Julia's other harp. I also mounted the strings on the opposite side so she can play the harp right-handed and still be able to reach the treble strings.
