Stumpf Fiddle Devil Stick
a.k.a. Pogo-Cello, pogocello, Polka Cello, Poco Cello, stump fiddle, boom-ba, boom bass, bumbass, Hum Strum, devil's violin, Teufel Stick and others.
Usually these are made from shovel handles, hoe handles, pallet lumber, old ski's, pie pans, cookie or cracker tin boxes... generally a pretty casual construction.
I thought I would try making one on purpose, making as much of it myself as possible, and hopefully it wouldn't look like something the dog drug home.
This weighs 9.3 pounds as the Stumpf Fiddle and 11.4 pounds as the Devil's Stick.
