This project was fun and I got a good
instrument out of it. I liked to hit the nails
into the binder. I learned that nails can hurt a
lot if you hit yourself, that tuning is really
hard, and that a harp is hard to make with a half
swollen thumb or with out a swollen thumb.

In my instrument I used wood, nails, paint,
album, metal tubing, guitar string, and broken
Lincoln Logs. I found the wood in the basement
because we had some wood down there. I had nails
in my drawer, paint in the living room because my
mom paints. An album on the shelf, metal tubing in
the basement, guitar string at a music store, and
my old toy Lincoln Logs in the basement.

I made it by nailing in string and wood on
the binder. I bent the metal tubing with players,
and lined the string up with the tubing. I cut a
hole in the middle of my binder. My mom helped cut
the wood and buy the supplies, she helped cut the
binder, and started the nails for me. I nailed all
the nails, I helped tune the string, and I screwed
in the tuners. I nailed the wood in place. I glued
on metal tubing and Lincoln Logs.

You can pluck my instrument or just sway
your fingers a cross it. To change the pitch you
can use tuners or you can play the shortest or the
longest string.
