After the class field trip to see Antes Manta at the flynn theater as well as getting a chance to see and hold the instrument, Chaichas, I knew that, they were what I wanted to make for my project. Chaichas, an instrument that is usually made out of llama or goat toe nails has a great sound, and to me is similar to a tambourine. This is an instrument that was used in almost all the songs played by Antes Manta during the concert that we attended. When attempting to recreate the Chaichas I ran into some obstacles. These obstacles include them falling apart, being too top heavy, and not being able to make the sound that I was going for. So when I took a slight break and tried again I had success. For the finally product that I have here today
