Wooden crutches are free or cheap (Everyone’s using aluminum now) and cry out to be strung up. This one has a sardine can for a radiator/resonator, and tunes with violin pegs.The strings are stopped against the crutch leg. It's currently strung with .013" and .020" music wire and a guitar D string, and tuned DAD.  The screw eye and wingnut arrangement on the D string could be a fine tuner but it’s really there because guitar strings aren’t quite long enough.
