I have tried some of his plans and they actually make good playable instruments - just like the "Old Timers" would do - they make great use of available materials and true "Yankee Ingenuity" Most of all, this site has opened my eyes to new and creative possibilities for instrument building and music making. The HURDY GURDY is the bane of my wife's life but I think it's fantastic ! Next on the list? A fretless banjo or washtub bass ! I can't wait...
