Hi all,

I am interested in building a clavichord. I haven't decided fretted or un-fretted yet. But I am thinking something small, table-top portable. I have built a viola and various pieces of furniture so I don't feel that I need to purchase semi-prebuilt kit. My girl friend told me we have no more room for more furniture, thus the reason for a table-top/portable clavichord!

So I was wondering books/plans are there out there? Preferably cheap or free... (I know wishful thinking!)
Does anyone have any suggestions for a first time build? Looking on the web at the various suppliers it seems that most are wanting to sell kits.

regards,

Phil
