The diagram illustrates the steps involved in creating a violin by hand. The names of the materials required is given alongside the diagram depicting each stage in the process. An arrow is drawn between two steps, showing us the sequential order of the steps.
Overall, the process consists of 9 key steps and requires the usage of various tools such as the saw, cutting tool and heating tool. Materials such as glue and varnish are additionally used in the process.
The front and back parts of the violin are cut using a saw on a thin piece of wood. Using a cutting tool on the front part, the f-hole is carved out and the bass bar is constructed. Unshaped rib strips are shaped using a heating tool and are used to put the violin parts together using glue, thereby creating the body of the violin.
The scroll and the neck of the violin are brought together with the violin’s body to create the assembled violin. All additional parts are then added and the instrument is coated with varnish to create a completed violin.
