Cello Making: For Use with Violin Making, Step by Step
"The energetic Mr. Strobel is now onto his sixth handbook, and this modest volume contains a wealth of valuable information for the novice and, I would guess, not a few professionals as well. . . . Strobel's motivation in publishing these handbooks from his delightful country workshop is purely and simply to help someone out here to share in the great pleasure of building an instrument to be proud of. I am sure he has already succeeded many times over." --John Dilworth in the March 1996Strad Magazine, London(Cello Making, Step by Step) ". . . deals with the special problems of the cello, a table of nominal measurements (quite complete), lots and lots of drawings and patterns, and full explanation of everything that is different about making a cello. Useful directions and photos of moulds, cradles and clamp setups. This is a very good shop manual . . ."  --David Brownell, Editor,Michigan Violin Makers Association Journal
