    You can do this too! It’s as easy as 1,2,3... 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35... 487. All you need is a tennis racket, glue, some guitar strings, 6 years of wood working craftsman apprentice training, 17 days and $6300 worth of wood working tools! And when your done you’ll have a hand crafted instrument that can fetch up to $45 on Craig’s List!
