AGP #421 - “Steak ‘n’ Kidney Pi” - 3 String Fretless PanjoScale: 635mm/25inchesStrings: .038NW 026NW .018NWTunings: GDg AEa ADGFound these two forgotten $2 Pie Pans when scrounging through my Charity Shop find box’s for a Top to use in my last build, AGP #420, and remembered I’d seen and liked a very likeable 2 Pie Plate Tin build some years back, finally tracked it down, to a build by Bob Hillbilly Ingram, so thanks Bob for the inspiration for this build.The Neck is Grey Ironbark & European Beech, finished with Organoil Natural Wax & Polish, a 4.4k Delta Type Single Coil Pickup is wired through Vol & Tone Pots to the Output Jack.I’m quite happy with sound of it at the moment, but not sure whether to stick with the current strings, or restring it with lighter Banjo’y Type Gauges. :-)

  • "Thanks Bob", I always try to add Photos and Details of my builds when posting, in case someone can learn or benefit from them, but!, as nearly always this build and others, are ideas I've stolen from other peoples builds, which they probably stole from someone else, who stole them from........? ;-D

  • "Thanks Jock", have seen a few Bed Pan Builds over the years, but fortunately I live in the Sub Tropics, and usually a Doona is sufficient in our so called, "Cold Weather Winter Months" :-)

  • Wow!  This is awesome.  This is a great representation of homemade musical instruments.  Like Jock wrote, thanks for including photos and details.  Guess I’ll be looking for some Pi pans now.

  • Very nicely done, Alan. As always its good to have the build details. As a bonus, you now have a bedpan for the cold weather coming up ;-D
