The pan makes its sound medieval almost. Love it. Sick.

[@musinestesia2.0]

This dude will definitely survive in fallout universe. You know, making stuff from scrap metal parts. Amazing!!!

[@caydenbrown2095]

Wife: where’s my pan honey? Woodman: I made a panjo Wife: I need a divorce *proceeds playing panjo divorce blues*

[@ScrapwoodCity]

lol

[@arseneemma1963]

There u go again 😆😆

[@MattSponaugle]

Great video. I enjoy having no background music. I like the ambient shop sounds.

[@ScrapwoodCity]

Thank you, glad you liked it

[@kameron.w4089]

Me too!

[@jackholmes3625]

So you like to hear 0:08

[@CraftAndu]

I am always bit sceptical when I see you building an instrument, but in the end, when I see you playing it I am completely melting. This is so cool, I really want to build and an instrument myself now. Thank you for the inspiration!

[@ScrapwoodCity]

Thank you very much for the nice words, glad you liked it!

[@tino8442]

Scrap wood City banjo panjo and canjo

[@timsInSSI]

You hand made a "panjo" then played it........I can't even play a radio. Great job.

[@ScrapwoodCity]

Thank you very much my friend

[@tino8442]

Scrap wood City you are an artist Jesus like that's art

[@caydenbrown2095]

How the hell do you play a radio

[@andrewnicholson4689]

An inspiration for creativity.. I too have made instruments from essentially scrap! The idea is the thing that counts. There is a mini drum kit in my front room made from varying diameters and lengths of heavy duty cardboard carpet cores, wood glue, scraps of wood, plastic lid and recycled para cloth from the recycle shop! My kids couldn't stop playing them, all the uncles aunts cousins etc had a blast with them, they were painted with acrylic paints I had around, yes they got worn, but They were old carpet rolls and cost nothing? Literally nothing, just my time and scrap. Christmas 2013. Inscribed on those drums are the words "don't let money be the excuse to not invent" PANJO ! Brilliant...

[@MrJOHNMICHAELVEGA]

The work you do and are still doing is priceless ! Thank you and never stop giving!! I see that your heart is in what you do !!

[@ScrapwoodCity]

Thank you very much for the nice words

[@ScrapwoodCity]

thank you very much

[@pl_caravan4679]

it looks so violent when the videos are sped up like this :D one second he's calmly measuring and the next he's sawing precise details at 70 miles an hour :D

[@jessewilliams102]

I love the sound of drills and power tools in my surround sound

[@malcolmnesky9897]

Great build video! Just the right amount of info at the speed to keep it interesting! Well done brother! Sounds great too!

[@ScrapwoodCity]

thank you

[@tkzsfen]

god, the talent you have is a gift from the skies. i'm so glad to watch your videos

[@ScrapwoodCity]

Thank you very much for your nice comment

[@chopsddy3]

You have placed my cookware in jeopardy! Thanks. Sounds good. With a hardwood neck, it could probably handle six strings. Maybe twelve.🤔

[@eddyyu7091]

Can't find a way to praise you ! You're really so great !

[@ScrapwoodCity]

thank you

[@johnkelley9877]

Welll now that is something I have never seen before. A Panjo. It is really neat looking and you play great.

[@MarkMcCluney]

great job as always mate. you're an inspiration to makers the world over.

[@ScrapwoodCity]

Wow, thank you very much

[@STAY-GOLD-VINYL]

I recommend a brass nut and a copper bridge saddle

[@ScrapwoodCity]

I will try it out sometime, thanks!

[@sarafortunalopes4969]

Incredible.

[@ducksquadmusicstudio3764]

Nice canjo

[@ScrapwoodCity]

Thank you

[@RobMacKendrick]

Very similar to the classic American cake tin banjo. Thanks for the detailed building video!

[@Zantrop64]

You're getting better. Even if I don't like your head stocks :) maybe you should have made a taller bridge, then lower it to prevent from fret buzzing, and planing the frets and sanding them to make them round would have been great :)

[@ScrapwoodCity]

Τhanks. The frets don't buzz, it's actually the bridge that needs fine tunings with the file! If the frets go in place right and the fret board is flat, there is no need for leveling at this stage!

[@margaritistakiskailos]

ενταξει είσαι απίστευτος! Μετα απ' αυτό τι να περιμένουμε να δούμε; sky is the limit!

[@ScrapwoodCity]

Ευχαριστώ πολύ φίλε μου

[@tapashandabhirupchakrabort3165]

[@ScrapwoodCity]

[@BaljitSingh-yn9qt]

You are best I love your video ❤❤❤❤👌👌👌👌💛💛

[@ScrapwoodCity]

Thank you

[@BrassLock]

You are one of the few people who use a fret saw to cut the fret slots. Most people on KZbin use a Japanese pull saw, or a Tenon Saw.

[@ScrapwoodCity]

lol, never thought of that

[@BrassLock]

It made me wonder why they're called that - in the past people used to talk about "fretwork", which is what people use scroll saws for nowadays. I will have to find out why frets are called that, and why fretsaws got their name. I really don't imagine there's any direct connection.

[@maisumaqueda]

cool sound :D

[@mihumus]

Very nice, seriously. Awesome work man, enjoyed it!!

[@ScrapwoodCity]

Thank you very much my friend, very glad you liked it.

[@joelveloria3889]

Thanks ✌️

[@BoubakeurRabia-mi3jv]

❤️👏👏👏👏🎼 Bravo c'est magnifique

[@ScrapwoodCity]

Thank you

[@pheenix42]

Cut a few decorative openings in the pan, and you'd have what we Americans call a 'resonator' instrument.

[@ΒασίληςΜαρκούλης-ρ5ρ]

I could't image an oven pan sounds like this.

[@ScrapwoodCity]

Κι όμως!

[@BillSinWorkshop]

Awesome work...really cool idea

[@ScrapwoodCity]

thank you very much

[@RayRand]

I'm wondering if it wouldn't have been been better if you'd reversed the direction of the pan? You could also go one step further if you're truly going for the banjo sound and strap a skin to the front. Anyhow .. the concept is great. Love the video.
