cookie/biscuit tin resonators - looking for plans

Hi folks,

I've been off of here for a couple of years, and cycling back to the cbg hobby.

I just bought three cookie tins.  Two are round at 6", the other is rectangular at 4x6".

I'm looking for plans on making something with these.  Particularly how to attach the neck, etc.

I did a search of the site, and either it didn't search the whole site, or I used the wrong expression.  I used both biscuit and cookie.

can anybody point me to some plans or a video or photo documentary?  Visuals are very good for me.\

David

As I said in the original post, I tried the search feature and got back zilch from several combinations of words.

Thanks for the links.
