He has now built a good reputaion and works with members of all major Swedish orchestras as well as amateurs and students on all levels, doing repairs, restoration and new making. Having worked as a player himself he is familiar with the problems one can encounter with badly adjusted instruments, and has specialized in fitting-up and tonal adjustments.
