Kind of a Cajon drum snare made from a bird feeder,bass pedal, wire brush hitting a metal dish,childs bells on footpedal shaft, child cymbals - as a high hat, snare - springs inside box, and a of course a packet of toothpicks as a rattle.
Kind of works?

Many thanks Uncle John, Be (who I was sending pics through, as it was developing and yes things were falling off!); Chuck, Willard, Clock and Southpaw.

This is a rough tester for a back beat. Got a high hat, tambourine too and building some foot rhythms..

... Missed a beat!...with this one
