3MATHEMATICAL METHOD OF MODELLING AND CONSTRUCTING THE VIOLIN.
5BY drawing and constructing the instrument according to the following method, as given by Antonius Bagatella of Padua, very passable Violins may be produced. Exact work must be displayed in the divisions of the length as well as in the graduations to scale subsequently set forth. Draw a perpendicular line 14 inches long, and divide this carefully into 72 equal parts, as in Fig. 29. Through the following numbers of the graduated perpendicular, draw 20 horizontal lines, as in illustration:—
71st Line through the point 8, and marked AA.
