Wierd Instrument Project: Keyless Drawer Hurdy Gurdy [1]
Vložit
- čas přidán 12. 08. 2024
- I made this hurdy gurdy out of a drawer from a dresser that Kris's mother was throwing away. Of course a few parts were not made out of the drawer.
I'm back to using an older "update" format in this video that I used in the last hurdy gurdy build, so no shop footage unfortunately. However you are free to ask questions about anything that I might have missed in the video. More updates to come.

Honestly I'm impressed with the sound for what it is
A bysantic wheeled lyre
That’s awesome, kinda like a mechanical tagelharpa!
That's what I was going at
@@meercreate Great work, I have a tagelharpa myself.
I have seen these fretless sections added on to some of the Larger higher $$$ Hurdy Gurdy's usually separate and below the Tangent keys section. I like the Simplicity of it.
what if you had frets at the proper key points on the top of the box/sound board, and lower the strings down to just above the frets like a guitar, it seems Like the volume would be Louder as in a hurdy gurdy the tangent and keys are all in contact or part of the top sound board for resonation into the sound box. with the frets for each string in different locations like the Tangents for each string Like a push button Hurdy Gurdy, for playing Multiple notes at the same time like a push button Hurdy gurdy. would the sound be too clean and guitar Like? you would still be using a rosin coated wheel
friend please teach us how to make this wonderful instrument
Honestly this is the best sounding hurdy gurdy I've seen so far :')
I wish I still had it. It got crushed in storage. Eh, I could build another one
Been wanting to make one for ages. You have inspired me.
Nice job! The only suggestion I might have would be to use the flats (or tops) of your nails directly on the string (like a Gadulka fiddle). You'll get a much louder tone off the string, and a more precise intonation, although it might take a bit of getting used to, as the technique is almost opposite in that you push forward against the string with your finger nail instead of pressing down with the tip. Of course, if you happen to have super-hard left hand calluses, (like from playing fiddle or guitar) then pressing down should work fine. Cheers!
Did you use guitar strings? im looking into making a hurdy gurdy for myself for a school project
I used cheap violin strings. On my large one I used cello strings. Never use guitar strings as the windings can mess things up
Be sure to mention my channel to the class. I've got a zither build coming up.
@@meercreate heavy medium or light tension? Or does it not matter? I have happened upon some nice pear and walnut and would like to try my hand at trying to make a pear shaped gurdy. I have some experience with woodworking but almost none with instrument making so I apologize if this is a silly question.
@@harmonic5107 Mine are somewhat lighter in tension, but heavy gauge, due to the scale length
@@meercreate Thanks! I'll give it a shot. If it goes well and I end up posting it to youtube or facebook, I'll make sure to point people to your channel.
Do u think you can make a tutorial on how to make one?
Are you using tuning peg soap on those friction pegs? It comes in small wax-like sticks, is really cheap and discovering it changed a lot for my restoration and building projects. It gives you more friction while enabling you to move the peg more accurately!
This project gives me some ideas, the sound of this fretless hurdy gurdy reminds me a lot of a cigar box guitar played with a slide. I actually shied away from trying to build something with a wheel because of the rest of the technology I saw as necessary, but maybe I should just go for it, maybe adding a little bit of neck or something and making a hurdy-guitar thing!
this sounds so cool i wanna make one
Slidey Gurdy
I’m just thinking that the bridge needs to be located on a freer-vibrating part of the sound-table. It’s a volume thing…
A taglgurdy!
This is so cool! I'm planning on building something similar, can you tell me what type of material you used for the wheel and what type of strings those are?
birch plywood wheel, aluminum/magnesium violin strings
@@meercreate Thank you!
Very interesting. I’m wondering if you have tried it with an actual slide or bottleneck? Also, on some fretless bowed instruments (maybe Cretan Lyra and or Chinese erhu-I’m not sure), the player stops the strings with the top of the fingernail, sort of like an organic bottleneck. I wonder how that would sound?
I also see the latter technique on Morin Khuur (horse fiddle)
May I make one similar or a replica of that?
If you wish. I don't care, but linking back to this video would be nice
Wow! Congratulations! does the rope rub directly on the wood? or do you put something on it?
The strings rub against wood that has been coated in rosin
are the srtings the same type?
Thanks man
can i pls have a materials/tools list?
What kind of strings?
Violin, Cheap violin strings, aluminum magnesium wound
Tagel-Hurdy
Very much so!
What kind of strings do you use I want to know
Violin strings, aluminum magnesium alloy
👏👏👏👏👏
Nice! how is it tuned ?
Hi, nice job. Can the position of the wheel affect the pitch of the string??
Sometimes, but it definitely affects the tone more. Closer to the bridge is shriller, and to the center is mellow but airy
@@meercreate Thanks, i am thinking about build my own, i hope to make it. Haha
Where did you find those saddles?
I made them out of bolts I ground and sanded into that shape
what strings did you used?
Violin
@@meercreate thanks man
AAAA I WANT IT!
Make one
How do you tune it
by tensioning the pegs
