MAKE A MINI-HARP FROM A PLASTIC THROWING DISC

Step 5ALTERNATE CONSTRUCTIONS

ALTERNATE CONSTRUCTIONS
THIS TYPE INSTRUMENT IS NOT LIMITED TO USE OF A DISC.
Shown here we have used various dishes, and pans, to construct a harp.
To sound like a banjo I used a small dog food aluminum can for the center resonator inside of a larger soup dish. I had to glue rods around the circumference of the dish to anchor the tuning screws.
For the screws I used .093 bits holes in the plastic rods. This type construction is wide open to the imagination and is a lot of fun to make.
