Hi again Stefano and thanks for your reply!

It is just that I mesured the string length on picture number 2 from left, and it mesured exactly 3 times more then the fingerbord.

But the picture might be taken at a slight angle that makes that difference, I can't tell...

Well the oud is in your hands.. and it is only you that can mesure it directly:-)

so the mistary continues...




The wood might be dead, but the oud is alive.

Measuring directly from image #2, using draughtsman dividers, the front edge of the nut to the neck joint distance is not 1/3 string length - 3X the fingerboard length is not even the distance from the front edge of the nut to the front edge of the bridge let alone to the front edge of the bridge tie block.
This agrees more or less with Stefano's exact full size measurements if some slight allowance is made for underestimating the lengths due to optical distortions inherent in the image - not only the perspective distortion but also barrel distortion.

Also there may, of course, be some potential loss of accuracy when working with a reduced scale, lower resolution image.
