SQUARED EEL BANJO

Neck is 1x2 lumber, body is 1x3 lumber., wrapped in 4 layers of 3M mailing tape. LaBella#17 nylon banjo strings (ALTHOUGH fishline works almost as well.) Cheap geared guitar tuners. BELIEVE me: If it was HARD work, I wouldn't be DOING it!

BY the way: If you e-mail me a request, I'll send you the plans, free. All that I ask is that you let me know if any part of the plans need to be written more clearly.

The whole POINT was to show how easy it is to MAKE your OWN; but, so far, two people have contacted me to BUY them.

What fun! So, $50 USD plus shipping, why the heck NOT?

It's a fun job, but SOMEBODY's got to do it.

"A drum is just a banjo that someone was too lazy to put a neck on" LOL. Way to go, Mike

Wow Mike, Banjo really is your first name! Thanks for sharing this one too. The 3M tape part didn't surprise me. It's a heavier, nicer tape (made in the USA).

A drum is just a banjo that someone was too lazy to put a neck on.
