"Men in Sheds" - The Luthier

Update 6th January 2025 This film is now dedicated to the man portrayed in it, my Father. When I told him that it was to be uploaded onto YouTube, he was quite unsure and therefore wanted references to his name and address removed, which I did accordingly. However, things have changed and I now want everyone to know who made these amazing instruments. Paul Anthony Robertshaw died in his home town of Chesterfield on the 19th October 2023, at the grand old age of 95...and a half, as he often reminded us. Since retiring at the age of 65, he crafted a total of 24 complete violins, with number 25 that is almost complete, along with a commissioned viola. He also completed a cello on behalf of a luthier friend who passed away. Quite an achievement in such a little shed! This film now serves as a memory of a great man and his passion for violins. He was always amazed by how many people watched our film, as he never expected it to be even slightly of interest to others. Many thanks to all of you who've watched and posted such lovely comments, as it meant so much to us both. To those who are about to watch it, please enjoy watching a true creative at work. The Luthier - A Documentary. My dad spent the majority of his working life as an engineer but on retirement, turned his attentions to his true passion...the violin. He has played the instrument as an amateur since he was very young, but had always wanted to make a violin. On retirement, he realised this ambition and has produced not just one but over 20 of these beautiful instruments to date. The footage was filmed over a year, when he was 84, and, although not as prolific as he once was, he is still regularly to be found working away, crafting these beautiful instruments in his shed. I hope you enjoy this tribute to my dad's achievements as much as I enjoyed producing it. If you enjoy watching this, please watch my second "Men in Sheds" film, "The Bookbinder" -    • "Men in Sheds" - The Bookbinder   Thanks. GRoB
