That really gives the flavor of a cello to the sound. Super awesome experimentation and innovation! I love it!

Excellent!!

Richard S.-Yes the wheel acts like a bow. I coated it with rosin and spun cotton onto the strings to improve glide and mellow the tone, similar to a hurdy gurdy.

Really freaky sound, great job :)

That was fascinating! Really like the uniqueness of the sound. Kind of acts like a bow if I guess right! Thanks for sharing, I enjoyed that!
