Thanks Nancy and RTZ. Yes, it works well as a noter, especially the ones that end up with a narrower wood end under the bone tip. There are a couple that have a wider finger rest that give a lot of control to sliding.
The slides are listed as all the same on my website right now, but with the next batch I will try to separate them into categories like regular and wide. I will also have a separate listing for very unique slides with curly naturally shaped wood sections that have the appearance of being a little more custom. I'm no carver so they will be all natural. If you are looking for excellent carving, you know where to go for that. :)
That is some fine playing and sliding. Getting a lot of good out of the slide. I thought this type would be hard on arthritic old far fingers, but the between the fingers part is pretty thin..... Gees. I am just getting nearly up to being mediocre with a round slide. I better stick to round. Neat what you are doing.

Works like a dulcimer noter too.

Thanks Clock. This design is a better look and sound than my first try.
BADFINGERDELICA!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks Greg. Sorry, forgot to add the materials to the video description. Fixed that now.
Thanks Jim. :) I'll try to get a video playing lap steel style. the extra long handle makes a light touch easier than a weighted tone bar.
