If I had my druthers, I'd be buying a Burke low D but right now my money tree is out of season. If I was to make a low D....how would I go about it? Resources? Materials? Etc...Thanks in advance to anyone who could help with some advise on how to get started.

Also have a go at making a koncovka.
I made one for an autistic 12 year old recently,
and it's now a big favourite with him.
It's become a way for him to play an instrument and relate to
other things, so mom and dad think it's good too,
although the neighbours might have a differing opinion.
