This instrument turned out a lot better than I thought it would. So far I have not seen another one of these, so it is safe to say that, to the best of my knowledge, this instrument is unique, its closest relatives being the overtone zithers, of which this is a relative of, albeit a much more musical relative in my opinion. I would say it is a long scale melody harp with a tonal enhancement. I only have 11 of the 12 string spaces filled, as I need to get some more 0.012s, but 11 seems sufficient to demonstrate the tonal qualities of the instrument. I used JSCut to convert the tree svg to gcode, and bCNC as the controller, per my usual setup.
