Just a quick update: As purple begins to creep in the progress-o-meter, we start our quest for 61 perfectly tuned bars. Each bar is a very exact and calculated battle and we will soon post more about the journey.

Amazing. Looks like you are more than half way through. The final assembly and attachment to frame may take longer than this observer speculates.
The tuning is an exciting process to observe. I will be very interested to see and more anxious to hear the sounds of final marimba as created by Paul & Pete. Every instrument, whether made by hand or “manufactured” has a nature and character all its own. This marimba will be very special indeed.
Three cheers,
