I might not build one of these, but I definitely bought your album from iTunes.

Nice Matthew! Great to know I was of assistance. Keep Rockin' :)

I just made one this past week end. Used an old wooden box I got from the grocery store and cut a face to close it up. Plays really well and is too fun!!! Thanks for the video it really made building one easy

Thanks for all you kind words Shane, Wade and Taffy! Its nice to know the good old TCB hits the spot! :)

Haha, good stuff. I built and played a tea chest bass 60 years ago. Thinking back I must have looked a "dork" carrying that thing on my back from home to the youth club, to jamm with my mates.
Cheers Taff
