I've been wondering myself what he's been up to, hopefully he's just been too busy.

I know that he's into the Glastonbury Festival which is now running until the 30th...…. Maybe his band needed tending?

 

[Tinsmith]

I have been wondering along with ya'll.

Maybe his castle in Neuschweinstein?

 

[Ludwig II]

I've been away, focussed on other stuff. Still working on being the undiscovered superstar.

Sir Lud,
Good to hear you! I've been successful at being undiscovered my entire life.

Tonight I completed my best Hitty Thing percussion instrument so far. 1 x perforated and ridged tray, 1 x slightly smaller baking tray, separated by 4 blocks of wood. Doesn't sound like much, but there's a wide tonal range and good volume from it.

Sort of like this for the big one, gives a rub board sound, also sort of snare drum when used with brushes. The other, plain side, has a remarkably African tone to it.

YEA! Wiggy is back! Congrats on your Hitty Thing! Will need a video in action.

 

[Ludwig II]

Tonight was it's first outing. The ridged side wasn't as much use as expected, but the flat face of it gave a very sharp snare drum sound. It's excellent for reggae. The edges need more support, there were dents incurred. Also it needs a better strap arrangement to allow standing or sitting.

Hey you need to start a new build thread on this!
