Thanks, Edwin. There're some pictures in my photo album on my homepage. I have to post the final pictures including the tuners and frets. Basically, I took an old no-stick frying pan and used it as the resonator. It has a thin plywood head with sound holes drilled in it.

That's pretty cool prof. I agree - it sounds a bit like a guitar. Nice work
