Thanks for the plans Lewis. I don't know if I'll ever make one but I have the plans. It does look intriguing so I might give it a shot.

f any one want to build this I have re-Calculated the Frets to allow for a 6-1/2. Most music you will find in DAD tuning will call for it. It is perfectly ok to use the plans as they are. There is more than one tuning for the dulcimer.

for the 6 1/2 fret this in are inches starting from the nut.
