1 250 ml (1 pint) milk carton

4 screw eyes

1 piece of wood 39 cm x 4 cm x 2 cm

(16" x 1 1/2" x 3/8") approx.

4 pieces of fishing line 50 cm (18") long

1 stapler (with staples)

1 sharp knife (be careful!)

1 plastic bread bag closer-thingy (kwik lok) for a pick

1 pair of scissors

 

Staple the top of the milk carton closed. It will become the "bridge". Now cut a slot into both sides of the container. Slide the wood into the slot. Staple the fishing lines to the tail end of the board and tie the line to the staple. Partly screw the eyes into the other end of the board and tie the line fairly loosely to them.

The line will tighten as you screw the eyes all the way into the wood. To strum your Milk Carton Guitar, use the bread bag plastic closer tab as a pick. "Hey Jimi Hendrix! Got milk?"
