How many instruments have you built so far?: 14

What do you find most interesting about cigar box guitars? (If you do not enter something meaningful here (at least one sentence long), your membership may be rejected as a spam/bot fake account).: I've always played guitar and I've always loved to make things. Combining both of those things out of random junk I find at my house or a flea market has helped me with depression and gave me a little more purpose in life.
