Resurrect a Fallen Bridge on your Violin or Viola

See how to resurrect a fallen bridge and how to tighten and set up a completely loose stringed violin. Use this guide when changing strings as well.
Have a stable working surface with a soft cover such as a large towel.
Constantly check that the bridge is not leaning too far forward or backwards. Keeping the bridge at a slight back angle will insure that the strings do not pull the bridge over and even risk snapping. Tune each string one by one and go back to them over and over while checking the bridge angle. Tightening one string will change the pitch of another one.
