Hello! I'll show how to make a musical instrument I called "The Lost Key". It makes a beautiful sound effect, as you will see in the end of this Instructable.

It's very easy: all you have to do is cut the string in pieces with the same size. To make it easier, I wraped it around a CD case before cutting. After that, tie the strings in the keys, and in the basket, one by one (a LOT of pacience needed here).

Done!

And here it is! To play it, just roll your hand through the hanging keys, as shown in the video.

Thanks for reading, and sorry for my bad English.
