Thanks Ben! I've already found that there are a lot of nice and very helpful people here. My dulcimer restoration is coming along well, and I hope to be posting some photos soon!
Hi Robert, 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 to meet some good people.
Ben
Thanks Ken! You've been a big help already.
I wish I could make it to Hindman next week, but it's not looking like I'd be able to on those dates. If that changes, I'll let you know. Coincidentally, I had reached out to Herby Smith, co-founder of Appalshop, in Whitesburg (and a childhood playmate of mine), about my dulcimer, and he referred me to the folks in Hindman. I may be reaching out to them at some point. Awhile back I saw a story on TV about the lutherie school there that works with people in addiction recovery, etc. Looks like a great program. I would like to visit there sometime, since I've been getting into lutherie in my retirement.
I'll be in Hindman, KY next week, April 24, 25, and 26, for the Hindman Dulcimer Homecoming. I guess that's about a 3 1/2 drive but if you can get down anytime during the event I can introduce you to folks making a contemporary James Edward Thomas dulcimer and the Troublesome Creek Instrument Company. You can find information about the event here .

Well, Robert, I'm usually here welcoming people but I responded to your forum before coming here. Welcome to FOTMD. You are fitting right in. I've enjoyed talking with you here and I look forward to your continued participation as you restore your dulcimer and learn to play it.

Thanks very much! This is a great resource...I've already gotten some very helpful replies from 3-4 different people...already on my way to getting it back in playing condition!
Welcome Robert Owens to Friends of the Mountain Dulcimer. Glad you joined. How special to have and to fix up that old dulcimer that has been a part of your family for so long. I hope you are able to find the information you need.
