Thanks for the comments, Sam. I haven't tried leaving out the "halves" yet, but I do like the shorter VSL. Easier chording.

hmmm ... old eyes ... looks now like they are included. Excellent work either way.
Very nice. I see you've opted to omit the '+' frets. I'm doing one now without those as well. I decided to go with four strings for the added volume, but I think I will enjoy the diatonic fretboard.
You've done an excellent job, that is a beautiful piece that anyone would be proud to own or play.

Just finished dulcimer number 7 and love it. Beautiful book-matched Cherry back, sides, and soundboard with scrolled and woodburned cherry blossom soundholes. Used information from club members to create the best back and top braces and thesound is all I hoped it would be. Also created a shorter 25" VSLfor easier chord reach.Now I need to spend some time learning to play.
