I'm going to have to make one/a few sort of like this. All that resonating wood tends to lead me to think it would have a good, full voice. And after reading your comment about feet and seeing Kevin M's Pritchard replicas, I think I'll follow suit.
I most certainly appreciate your comments, Kevin, Mike, and Robin.
It is a shame that contemporary builders don't add hardwood feet to their dulcimers - it is a feature that has completely been lost from the modern instrument and yet they are highly practical and sonically significant.
