Hey guys, does anyone have any ideas for some extended technique on the Double Bass?

ive got a few:

tapping wood, bowing beyond the bridge, bowing with the wood, scratching wood?, harmonics- artifical or natural... etc?

thanks :)

perhaps slap pizz, Bartok pizz, bowing on the tailpiece, scratching on the strings with fingernails, slamming with fingers (left hand) on the strings without bowing, double- or triple-stopping etc?

I play the double bass, but can't think of more from the top of my head... Will add more later if I can come up with some good ones...
