'Tis done!

Finally, my harp is complete! I have built it, sanded it, finished it, strung it, tuned it, and now played it. I couldn't be happier.

I have two pictures for you readers of me playing my harp. This took place at the Evening of the Arts, where I played for the crowds of people who entered and exited. I was the first and last project most people saw that night. I received a huge amount of compliments and kudos from people, which made me ecstatic.

Way to go, Matt!

I've been thinking about this very make and model, myself and am interested in beginning a project on this harp... I just need to get a little money saved up first! You did a fantastic job, and I like how you charted your progress; it gives us readers insight and motivation to complete our projects.

I especially like the look of your finished harp. It's beautiful and I'll bet it sounds great too! Awesome job well-done! This is a legacy you'll be able to pass on to others and look back on with a great deal of pride.
