I combine the turpentine and walnut oil, prepared in previous videos , with pine resin to make a violin varnish.
This is part of The Redwood Violin Project, designed to paint a picture of Sonoma County, California, as told through the story of making a violin, as far as possible, from locally sourced materials. I will be positing videos about collecting the materials, the people I meet, and about the process of making a violin, including things like making my own glue and varnish from scratch.
Materials for the violin are selected both for being workable substitutes for traditional materials, and with consideration for their significance to Sonoma County's history and economy.
