I’m posting these photos so that they may be helpful to anyone who may be thinking about building a canjo. Here is my 2nd Canjo Build. It has a Dulcimer scale (570mm), with a .012 plain steel guitar string. The neck is 1" wide, and feels better in the hand (it doesn’t roll like the ½" did). I changed the design in order to be able to cut everything off of one piece of wood, so I wouldn’t have to glue anything to save time. Things that I will change on my next build: The head will be changed by either doing a scarf joint, a sideways tuner mount, or gluing a separate piece under the neck. As you can see on the pictures I had to add an eye screw in order to get tension so it would stay on the nut screw. I will probably also glue the tailpiece to the neck so I can lower the can more. It is hard to drill in the rings on the can. I went with a regular vegetable can because I crushed the aluminum Mountain Dew can with very little effort. With all of this said the canjo does play well, even thought I do find playing with a can in the way a bit awkward.
