# Floor Harp Risks

- Cumulative string tension can damage the frame or injure the builder if the
  neck, pillar, or base joint fails.
- Tuning pin torque and holding power are unknown until scrap tests are done.
- Soundboard deflection is not validated.
- Long clear hardwood and harp strings may have cost/lead-time surprises.
- Remain at L2 until structural review, sourceability, and prototype tuning
  evidence are available.
