My name is Jaan Ader living in Umeå (Umea), a small city with 120 000 inh in the north of Sweden.
I'm a Viola player in Norrlandsopera Symphony orchestra at a dayly basis since 1979. Since 1982 I have a small shop dealing with making and repairing stringed instruments.
My lathe Blomqvist, a Swdedish licens built Southbend copy is the heart in dealing with luthier tools and their repair.
I have always admired welding with Dillon handle when seen at fairs and done by experts. Just recently I've got a Dillon of my own and planing to learn welding with it.
In my parents home we had al sorts of machine tools and welding equipment so I grew up doing all sorts of metal work on vehicles in a farm.
