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

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
