This has been a little project I've been working on the past couple months. It is a 25-note musical instrument made entirely of PVC pipe (and a slab-o-particle board). Above is the progress I've been making with it and the bottom picture is where it's at now. I've gone through Phases (that's what I call them to make it feel more important) of development.
Phase I: Make the board with holes in it.
Phase II: Put some legs on that board.
Phase III: Cut, tune, place, and glue all 25 different notes.
Phase IV: Suspend the pipes to the board and then take a nap.
Phase V: Put wheels on the whole thing.
Phase VI: ???
Phase VII: Play it!
I am in the end of Phase III now with only 5 more notes to go! When I am finished you'll see a lot of me playing it in the Springfield, MO area.
More updates to come!
If you have some extra pipe, I want to make a bubble maker. Actually, if you can get this thing to blow bubbles, that'd save me some time.
ReplyDeleteHmm, that's a fine idea -- if I miss a note, I will just shoot bubbles out to distract the audience.
ReplyDeleteThat is a brilliant idea if you ask me..
