anglo saxon lyre
Marc St Louis:
Looks good. It also looks like you used nylon harp strings, or what is used for harp strings

Looks really nice Dylan. Before you know it you’ll be building harps like Marc.
Always enjoy seeing what other interesting projects PA members are working on.

technically i think these things are considered to be in the harp family anyway so i'm already half way there (lol) but i think a banjo or ukulele is next on the list.

yep :) i got some nylon "mini harp" strings as actual gut is really expensive and most other nylon string sets had at least one metal wound string
DC:
Cool, that's been on my bucket list.
Hawkdancer:
Very nice work! The lyre actually is a precursor to the harp according to what I have read. What type of wood did you use?

I put a cheapo lyre on my wish list for Christmas. I think it'll sound nice with the penny whistles. But building my own would be so much more fun. Thanks for the inspiration. ;D
