the world's first ever quad harp

Only just got on today - it has taken so much longer than I thought to make the harp templates...
I have marked (with hammer and nail) over 200 holes to show where to put the pins and pegs and holes in the soundboard. The harps that I am playing at the moment I marked the outer string holes but did the inner string holes with a hand drill after I had put the strings on to make sure they were exactly in the middle. Hopefully the extra effort will produce the world's first ever totally accurate quad harp! SO GLAD THAT's DONE!!! More snow today and so grey and damp and COLD... I am off to curl up in bed with hot water bottles and a good book.
