i build guitars and dulcimers from cardboard, and would like to try harps sometime. i would just like to hear other people's attempts and thier experiences . thanks!!

Answer 1

I made a music box from cardboard, with a metal music box movement inside. also a windstick from a cardboard tube and various fillers. We experimented with rice, beans, broken glass, cut up plastic utensils, and cut up soda cans. The cut up soda cans made the best sound.

I found a site that describes how to make guitars and dulcimers like yours.
