Washtub Bass Construction

 
            Constructing this folk instrument is quite easy.  All that is needed is a broom, $7, 1/8” braided nylon rope, $6, and washtub, $15.  Put in a screw at the end of the handle, and tie the string around it.  Then, tie the other end of the string to the rim of the bucket through a hole which you can puncture.
