I'm craving the salt

I'd taste that

It's interior plywood for houses. I filled the gaps in the wood with wood putty

Let’s push the bar on what’s technically not NSFW

I don't know how good it'd hold up with straight up plywood, but I'm no instrument maker

Ply may fail in places where there are imperfections

But you can reinforce it by filing a bit of that ply away and epoxy-gluing a stronger piece of plywood on the opposite side of strings

Well , this is more of a practice project to see how it goes mostly. I can always buy better material. But I'm always thankful for the advice , @Uksio , @AndreiT .

Stop it you lemon stealing whore

You want cringe?

here ya go

It's alright @MoistBread i have no expertise, but I can build a couple things here and there

Would you two like to hear it when it's finished ?

He'll yeah

It's a Japanese instrument?

I'm familiar with the Chinese type of banjo that has 3 strings, less so with this type

Nah. One is a northern European instrument called a jouhikko , and the other one is called a trossingen lyre originally made in Germany .

Ohh I see,

@MoistBread Thin "veneer" plywood is good for resonance.
Balsa wood is used to reinforce said thin ply from inside in spots where it spans too far without support and in the corners.
If you need spacers between the upper anr lower thin ply - use MDF - it is as sound-neutral as it gets

I was wonder if making the horns a detachable part that I can switch out in between if I wanted to play one or the other haha

such things do exist

is that bad luck meme from the flapjack movie

What would I use for a reinforcement for the edges or the outside wall ? I can't find any reading material for that kind of thing

more wall

I tried playing a 5 string bass on a few occasions

my left hand cramps trying

is that a 24 string bass?

nice

More like 8 Triplet strings

24 strings sounds cooler though

Yeahh I'm useless at guitar, I can play the harmonica fairly competently, but it's not a 'cool' instrument
