There's a small misspelling in that link. Here's the correct one.

Hi fellow dulcimer makers and luthiers building any fretted string instrument!

It's come to my attention that my website is not sending me orders made with the order form there!
If you've made an order and haven't received a reply, please let me know. You can either respond here or using the Bear Meadow website Contact Us page.

Meanwhile, some news about increased accuracy, ±2 cents (2 hundreds of a half-step), by using the template to create a test fingerboard. That is mounted on a one-string music instrument (a monochord), and testing each fret with a stroboscope tuner. I usually correct anything over 1.5 cents. And as usual, that certification record is sent with your template. And I'm able to hold those tolerances from everything from a ukulele scale to a bass guitar.
