how to rehair a violin bow?
looking for pictures of incerting the wedges,measuring the hair ect.
Are you sure you want to do this yourself? If so, you might want to get this guy's book.
Subject: FIDDLE BOW REHAIR
Just read your letter recommending a professional to re-hair fiddle bows. surely there is a site where someone has instructions on re-hairing a fiddle bow. I play for my own entertainment and my grand child got into my case and broke the hairs in the bow. I believe I could perform the operation. If I played professionaly it would matter but for my case, I think home repair would do. so please, is there a site that has instructions on re-hair a fiddle bow ? I promise I will not give away any secrets.
Thanks
Greetings,
I studied rehairing bows as a protege...and, no it's not a difficult process...and, yes, to do it right, it is. Additionally, it takes some essential equipment besides the horse hair itself. Meaning it's not cost effective to perform only one or two rehairs...see below for further info...and best of luck to you in your research efforts, Mickey
Here's an interview from http://www.tiac.net/~cfiddle/bowrehair.html:
"From my experience, its almost impossible to rehair a bow properly by yourself without training and some specialized bench tools. I learned this during a summer course in bow rehairing at the University of New Hampshire. Even though I took the course, learned to rehair, and I'm pretty skilled with tools, I still send my own bows out to persons in my area who rehair bows for a living.
I could rehair a bow if I had to, but its much easier to let a pro do it. Learning to rehair bows quickly and accurately takes lots of time and practice, just like playing an instrument! Knowing what I know now about bows, I would never recommend that a beginner try it from scratch, except on a real "junker," for fun. Its really easy to damage a nice bow if you don't know what you are doing!
I've briefly described and illustrated the construction of violin bows in my book, The Fiddle and Violin Buyer's Guide. There are also many other sources for violin related information in the book"
