I Don’t Know Any To Be Honest, I Just Improvised, But You Can Create Open Chords By Barring The Strings With a Slide/Finger.
Best if You Fingerpick – Just Make it Up!

sorry to bug you so much, but what chords should i use for this kind of guitar? thanks for the information

Sure
I Also Made a Ukulele From an Olive Oil Can & a Banjo From a Sweetie Tin; You Get a Different Sound To a Body Of Wood, But It’s No Less Effective.

from the first arpegio he does of the open strings (1:00 ) it seems to be root – fifth – octave like a powerchord
