Here is a photo of a Manjotar that i made from scrap wood found in my shop. I did have to buy the strings, but everthing else is scrap or secondhand. There was no plan for this instrument it was just free-form creativity. this is what I do to unwind after work( when I'm not playing tennis) My next project is a painting of my son. I am currently finishing the sketch part right now. Oh yeah as far as building custom homes is concerned, I now only work for people who are deserving of my talent. This new economy has taught me some valuable lessons. The most important lesson in business is the same for life in general- "Do not let anyone waste your time- it is finite."
