I decided to upload a video rather than take a bunch of pictures. It isn't quite finished yet but it has a lot of cool features....I think. It's made from a piece of oak pallet I got from the local hardware store. Feedback is welcomed and highly anticipated!

Thanks!  I goofed up when I built it....it has a 30 inch scale plus several more inches to each end so it looks like I'll have to go to a music store and find a bass string!   OOPS   I'll do a vid when I get it strung up....I think it's gonna be cool!

Ha!  Liked the tire stem thing, Water sprinkler part, Pegasus and the art.  Lots of originality.  Kind of looks like Gandolf's staff.
