Thanks A.D., yes, I thought about simple wooden peg as tuner but I have never had an instrument turned away from any jail or prison because of a metal tuner so thought I'd try that first. Also, in teaching I would only bring the guitars in with me and then take them back out after each class. So they are only in the hands of residents while in class with me, guitars, slides and picks, then all back out when each class ends. -Glenn

Great efford Glenn ! in 2013 i had some Inmate (Cameron Terhune) from Mule Creek Prison approche

me ,at the time it was to depressing for me to relate to the guy, but whit in the LORDS forgiving and educating Nature,this ideer might get a chance allthow i whoed change the tuner for a hard wood peg,the metal on the build might give you protest,iknow cause in Mule creek even simple things like Paper and a coloring pensel was allreay a problem.they are NOT aloud any personal assets at all!

so at the time i declined the Mission,but i wish you good Luck on your's Glenn !

Liking all of this, Glenn.  The pallet wood, the plan, the mission, the ta-wangy good sound.  And those wood slides.    Thanks and God bless.

Now we know what that “bad boy” sounds like Glenn! Perfect design for use in a prison should be a fun program. We will look forward to updates on it.
