Saw that on Reddit the other day. Actually sounded pretty good in the demo.
I love this thing. I’ve been watching a heap of wood turning videos and a lot of people are using epoxy and pencils with amazing results. I’ve actually ordered about 6000 colour pencils from China to experiment with 😁
Sweet! Have also loved the epoxy / wood turning videos. Amazing results...
I’m waiting for the screws to pop out where they are screwed in the coloured “lead” rather than wood.
Tonewood matters.......

...... that's pretty incredible. I cannot believe it is just plain un-coated cardboard.
I believe it was actually resin coated or infused, I can’t see any way that uncoated cardboard in the neck is going to resist the string pull at the headQuote:

Full of epoxy or some other resin. You can tell by the way it shines.
.. and doesn't simply fold into a twisted mess.
Also got a truss rod and a wooden skunk stripe.
Saw that video on youtube, and yes I, too, was amazed at how good it sounded.
A bloke who did one of those pencil builds has now done a Styrofoam build...
