Thank you for the detailed update. Makes my broken chair leg look like child's play.
I had a broken violin years ago that I ended up trading for a working wooden clarinet. Your pictures make me wish I still had that violin to tinker with and try to bring back to life. The violin didn't actually have any broken parts. It had just sat so long in its case that the glue had broken down and the 100+ year old strings had pulled the top off. I think it was made somewhere in the northeastern US mainly because that's where I found it.
Wish I had pictures, but at the time I needed a clarinet more than a broken violin and jumped on the chance to ditch it.
