This is a Fiddlerman link demonstrating how to resurrect a fallen bridge. It would also be good to watch for tuning, especially if installing  new strings, even though you just do one string at a time, and the bridge is still standing upright, as far as turning the pegs, and reminder about fine tuners.

Wow, restoring a broken violin bridge is a delicate but important skill! I think handling it gently and making sure it is perfectly aligned is key to getting the best tuning.

Trust yourself that you can do it and get it. tap road

Can't argue with that.

A fallen bridge isn't a broken bridge.

Ooh, I didn't catch the "broken". I need a bigger catchers mitt.
