- In this video I make a bowed instrument that uses a small drum as a body and has a basswood neck. You can find similar instruments in several cultures of the world. My inspiration came from instruments like banjo, yaylı tambur, erhu and Iranian kamancheh.
Tools and materials I propose:
Mini drum: amzn.to/3cvkQnx
Drill press: amzn.to/2pJaAPo
Cordless drill: amzn.to/2A6fTOy
Bandsaw: amzn.to/2pHj49v
Forstner bit set: amzn.to/2A5NPLq
Chisel set: amzn.to/2pILO1B
Block plane: amzn.to/2RLiAMf
Flat file: amzn.to/2RHIMHH
Flexcut starter carving set: amzn.to/38SH6GB
Wood burner: amzn.to/2pHkAbG
Round file: amzn.to/2RHJ80Z
Spoke shave: amzn.to/2IjIALM
Cabinet scrapers set: amzn.to/2Alze0L
Rotary tool: amzn.to/2YtT97u
Mask Respirator: amzn.to/2RKTfCr

Always fun to see you make another makeshift yet carefully crafted and very playable instrument!
Thank you
What a great instrument! It's been a while since we've seen you make one... enjoyed every minute of the video! All the best from Portugal!
Thank you, greetings from Greece
I always really enjoy your instrument builds, my friend. This has a nice sound to me...a bit like a tagelharpa
Thank you
Excellent, as you always are! Terrific little instrument and a very entertaining vid. I never saw someone putting rosin on the strings before! Something new everyday. Cheers Dimitris, great vid.
Thanks Mark. I wasn't sure about rosin on strings but it seems to work
Nice spike fiddle! I've made stuff along these lines too. I really like that idea of using the woodburning tool to mark the fret positions- I might have to borrow that 😁
This sounds a lot like a tagelharpa but without the droning strings
How about a 4 String version tuned like a Violin that also has frets.
Perhaps in future. We'll see! ;)
@@ScrapwoodCity It should use Black Diamond Violin Fiddle Strings cause they're special.
That wouldn't require a whole new project. Just a change of the nut and bridge, I would imagine. Also an added tuner.
@@KingLouisII And also metal frets. Black Diamond Violin Strings are special.
@@KingLouisII That might be a good update.
Sounds like a tagelharpa
🤷🙆👏👏👏🙂10 minutes of pure relaxation.
Ditto comments below. It's been awhile since you made an instrument. It amazes me you keep finding different ways and materials to make 'Notes'.
thank you
fantastic, but how can u bow nylon strings?
It was kind of difficult. I am not a bowed instrument player. Someone who has more knowledge on the subject could find nany things to correct on my project.
i love it, stringe instrument + banjo body is a formula for success
Σιγά μην περίμενα ότι θα κάνεις κάτι φυσιολογικό . Παλαβός και πανέξυπνος όπως πάντα !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
χαχαχα, τι να κάνω παλεύω!
Hello my friend,
Again great design. An interesting musical instrument. Fine Arts; They are the things that the human hand, head, and heart work together. I watched a great design. Congratulations. See you. Big greetings.
Thank you very much
@@ScrapwoodCity 👏👏👏👏
That's great you keep coming up with interesting instruments
Thanks
Χαχαχαχαχαχαχα...........Θεός...........Μπράβο,ρε μάγκα..........!!!!!!!!
Ευχαριστώ να'σαι καλά
Very interesting. Well done pal
Thank you
Ωραίο προτζεκτάκι. Έχεις εμπνευστεί από το yayli tambur ή από μόνος σου το σκέφτηκες; Είναι εξωτικό μεν αλλά υπαρκτό όργανο της ίδιας φιλοσοφίας.
Ναι, αλλά όχι μόνο, δες την περιγραφή του video
Awesome! Missed the musical instrument videos!
Wonderful ! Is it a traditional Greek instrument ?
Thank you. No it isn't
@@ScrapwoodCity It's your invention, isn't it ?
I love the wood burn measurements
Περίμενα να έχει φουλ περίεργο ήχο, αλλά ωραία ακούγεται!
So good
Thank you
*δεν εχω λογια-πολυ ωραιο φιλε*
Ευχαριστώ Νίκο
Ωραία δουλειά μπράβο Δημήτρη
Ευχαριστώ Στέλιο
Pretty cool!
Thank you
Τέλειο!!!! Είσαι πολυμήχανος Δημήτρη!!!!👍🙂
Ευχαριστώ Μιχάλη
It would be worth adding a small horn at the bottom of the resonator, like on the Stroh violin
Ι'll do my research. Thanks for the recommendation.
To su gusle starac. Svaka cast
9:56 for playing!
It's a rebab
An amazing musical instrument.
GooD)))))))
Thank you
Excellent smart-music-instrument project!!
Thank you
Well done! 👍😉
thank you
decent bro
thank you
Biggles that was an understatement
Καλημέρα Πολύ ωραίο βίντεο
Καλημέρα ευχαριστώ
Next time make violin.
Tuned WAY too low
I think you are right! It would work much better on a higher pitch!
Γειά σου ρε Μήτσο μάστορα!
Γεια σου κι εσένα, να'σαι καλά!
what diameter rod did you use?
It is fine work
thank you
sweet sound bro
Thank you
sweet job
Thank you
Brilliant!
thank you
Two thumbs up! Your audio is very good. I enjoy the sound of sharp tools cutting wood. Very satisfying.
Thank you very much!
The end result reminded me ever so slightly of a rebab
