Default Carving violins
Did anyone see the article on the evening news about Violet Hensley? She plays the violin and carves them also. She said she has made 73 violins so far. It showed her carving a violin with one of her knives at her kitchen table. She must be very talented indeed. She's 90 years old now and she said she has slowed down a little but will never quit.

Indeed she is talented. I cant imagine performing like her at 90, heck I doubt I could do it now.
