Hey Don, welcome aboard. Glad ya found us.
Hey Ken...I am doing another workshop for Banjos in March. Never gave a lot of thought to doing a dulcimer building workshop. Nice to hear from you!!
Welcome to FOTMD, Don. It is good to have you aboard. Every time I get my banjo out to play I think of you. Glad to hear that you are retired now. Have you thought about adding a dulcimer building class to your week at the 4H camp?

Hi Don, and welcome to the wonderful world of the Friends of the Mountain Dulcimer. It's a good place to come, spend some time, learn about the dulcimer, and meet some good people.

Welcome Don to Friends of the Mountain Dulcimer. Glad you joined. This is a great place to find answers to your questions. As you are a builder you may want to join the dulcimer making group as questions posted in that group about building will be seen by the builders on this forum. Best wishes on your dulcimer journey.
