Excellent work! How did you get your logo on the headstock that way? Are there any native Siberian materials you can use in the future? Mastadon? An Icon motif, perhaps?

Keep building and keep posting!

Great builds, I love the second one.
I used to live in Tomsk a while back, drove by Novokuznets but did not stop. I had a good friend from there. I still miss lots about Siberia.

logo was engraved with laser.
it is hard to get bones of extincted species, because they are in museums I want to try tusk of walrus as nut material. Native luthiers use some kinds of siberian wood, such as siberian spruce, ryabina (Sorbus), poplar and ash. I often use Yavor maple from Kavkaz, it's similar to american hard maple, but a little softer.
