I still have put a different knob on, and clasps to hold the keybox lid
shut... I didn't add a third string because the drone pretty loud... I'm going
to try and move the wheel closer to the bridge and see if I can get a louder
chanter.... I'm using 94 plain gut for the chanter and a cello string for the
drone. I used the Tolley plans for the body but I didn't follow his plans for
the tangents... I added 4 extra.. Only thing is when you get past about the
7th or 8th tangent the sound is scratchy... Is their something that causes
these higher notes to screach when you get to the tangents close to the
wheel?????
