Hey Glenn. Thanks for the kind words. I love how fearless you are with experimenting. How's that "Snuggly-Bo" (Snuggle bottle) sound?

i have uesd nail on three of my builds and tooth picks on 2 of them. ive got 1 that im working on now its a license plate that i made a box for out of oak and the neck also is oak and heres the kicker the fret wire is copper wire from house wire that i got from my dad again when he build his garage and it really was easy to work with and it looks killer! the nut is a piece of copper tubing that i smashed flat. to me it looks really cool but ive still got to pick up some tuners and make a tail piece for it. its a 4 string.

thanks Glenn. its got steel strings on it and no pup as of now but i will put one in it soon. i was trying to see how cheap i could build it for and ive got 8.00 in it right now. i gave 1 dollar for the box and 4.50 for the eye bolts and 2.50 for the strings.my dad was building a new porch on his house and had a picket left over and gave it to me and i used it for the neck and made a heal from a scrap piece of poplar and a headstock from a scrap piece of red oak and the nut and bridge are concrete nails that i bummed from my dad as well lol so i guess he kinda owns half of it lol
