EVER THINK IT MIGHT BE FUN TO BUILD A HAMMERED DULCIMER?
My Dad, Charlie Alm, has written a book on Hammered Dulcimers. It is called "THE HAMMER DULCIMER BOOK - How I Build the Things". It has been advertised in Fine WoodWorking, Dulcimer Players News, Sing Out, and American Luthiers Guild. He has built over 100 of the instruments and is very well known in the midwest.
It is the most detailed book on building hammered
dulcimers. It is basic enough to be helpful to a novice, and
in-depth enough to help an experienced builder. There are a number of
books that discuss the Hammered Dulcimer in some detail, but this goes the
farthest. This is the book to help you build your hammered dulcimer.
The book is now in its eighteenth printing. He
has received orders from every state in the U.S. and many other countries,
including: Japan, Australia, Mexico, Taiwan, England, Germany, Norway,
Israel, Phillipines, Hungary, Scotland, Netherlands, Isle of Man, Puerto
Rico, Sweden, Italy, Canada, Greece, Denmark, and Ireland.
The book is $19.95 plus $2.00 for shipping, for a total of $21.95 USD. Payment may be VISA, MasterCard, Discover, American Express, or PayPal. Be sure to include your card number, expiration date, name as it appears on the card, and your name and mailing address. Payment may also be made by personal check or money order.
