    Great content for players and amateurs! Not many professionals are willing to share this knowledge in such detail. Benefits the community.

      Thanks Gert! You are a violinmaker as well so I appreciate your comment even more.

    The 3 blade reamer also burnishes the hole which helps create a good bearing surface.

    Thank you so much, Edgar for sharing your valuable skills and experience. I have installed Wittner geared pegs and thought they were quite a good concept, but it is surprising to me to hear that even pros like them. I thought maybe they might spurn them as not being 'purist'.

    Hi Edgar!
    I am planning on joining your patreon.
    Already in the academy. There is not really a luthier in my area... even though orchestra is in all the schools. There is a music shop... but they use super glue to fix things... they told me with pride themselves.
    They are not allowed to touch my instruments... but the nearest luthier is 6 hours away in a different state... and in the winter that drive is very dangerous.
    So what is a musician to do?... and the thought came "you could look in to it and try to fill the void"... so here I am... learning new things from Edgar every day!

    Ciao Edgar, grazie for your interesting videos. Have you ever tried Berbuer-Wirbelschneider (peg shaper)?

  • @winterhorse290
    @winterhorse290 Před 8 měsíci

    Couldn’t you use a dowel about the same size as a peg base to test the sharpener?

  • @markj7924
    @markj7924 Před 10 měsíci

    Thanks for your video Edgar. I had a thought about adjusting the sharpener to the reamer, can one just loosen the sharpener blade, install the reamer into the sharpener, butt up the blade of the sharpener to the reamer, then tighten the sharpener blade? I don’t have either tool but seems to me this might get you at least closer if not very close?

    I see you recommend Precision Pegs. Can you please explain why you prefer them over the competition, such as Wittner?

      I feel like Ghandi now: to answer your question give me the time to check out other brands before. Hold on..........

    I admire the antique Strad drill press in the background.
    Question: why don’t violins use modern geared tuners instead of pegs?

    Hallo Meister , echt sehr tolles sauber beschriebenes video , wunderbar erklärt , das einzigste was ich gern genauer wissen würde, ist was ist bag dope ? Oder wie schreibt es sich und für was ist es gut ?? Kann ich das auch bei der türkischen saz ( baglama ) bei den wirbel verwenden ?

  • @ghlscitel6714

    Reamer alignment problem: Are there reamers who have a cylindrical extension at the tip? (German: mit Führungsdorn) Might solve the tilting flaw.
    Did you ever hear of the "Atelier Mörth" titanium pegs? They claim better slip performance with sufficient stick properties.

    I didn't quite catch how the sharpener is adjusted, you talked about filing the pegs until they fit, didn't you?

    I wait to see AI making violins as a luthier and makin some money, hehe. Honestly, I dont know how to thank enough. So many important details, excelent and truly honest. I purchased one peg shaver form aliexpres, and, it came to be not suficient even for a 3/4 violin, and I dont have smaler one to test the fitings, hehe, talking about mesurments. So im trying to make them fit atleast 3/4 one, time consumin g is crasy, and the nervs and confusion hundred like these situations hapens, its overhelming, but, its life I gues. Greetings from nearbuy country, and, Im afraid AI SUNO app could soon play instruments and compose beter than the best violinists and we are all put out of the job, and im just yet a biginer, what a future for me... what do you think? If we see designer images AI can make, you understand can do same good at anything..

    Im sorry, but Il have to say this, you mister said that you make your own peg shaver and that those you buy even in geremany, even when buying both rimer and shaver with the same maker, store, it doesnt fit, so you make your own peg shaver out of wood, and that is as i saw black wood maybe eboy. So, now, all this video was excelent, excelent perfect, only one mistake, how do we no aply all this wonerful knowledge you shared with us if the first step we dont know how, yes, thats right, how to make the peg shaver, hahaha, its a pain in the brain puzle for me honestly, just like when i used hundreds of jars and botles some jars for 4 litres, and botles plastic 5, 6 litlres to mix the olive oil so one day i get arnold swizeneger muscles by shaking those biceps, than i can get that oil, and it didnt work and i failed, but these pegs i relay need my 5 violins are just colecting dust and as i see nothing will come out me becoming unbelivable good violin maker. huh, anyways, do you need aprentence maybe, heh, well, if yu show us the sicret of making one perfect violin peg it would be most perfect of all realy wonderful videos on you probably by faar bst violin making yt chanel, thank you mister.

    Are seriously not using geared pegs?it's 2023 for heaven's sake LOL. Those friction pegs should be outlawed!
    I hope you are not using an abacus.

    • @EdgarRuss
      @EdgarRuss  Před rokem

      In one way or another you are right and I understand what you actually mean; but on the other side if everything is ,made as it should be it is nice to see how these old fashion style pegs when they are well fitted are working so great.
      All the best from Cremona
