Steps to make the instrument Step 1. First cut a 1 and 1/2 inch piece off of the plywood. Step 2. Position the tongue depressors in place so that each one sticks out a little longer than the next one. Step 3. Put a piece of masking tape over the tongue depressors to hold them in place. Step 4. Glue the 1 and 1/2 inch piece of plywood on the top of the tongue depressors to hold them down. Let this dry overnight. Step 5. Once the glue dries, paint a coat of wood sealer over the wood and the tongue depressors so that the watercolor paint will stick to the wood. Let this dry for 30-60 minutes. Step 6. Paint the instrument. Let this dry overnight. |
