Great job! Good voice...and I, with all my fingers, couldn't play like that. I've seen it and I still don't believe it. Under normal circumstances I would say that was great. That's some of the better playing I've seen on this site.

My slide is made from pvc pipe heated in the oven then pressed into my arm to mold/fit then uses velcro straps to hold it on. and I use hardware store brass plate for the actual contact of slide to strings, glued on with epoxy. It's very light and fast and comes as close as you can get to the feel of a hand.
