Instructions | Begin by getting approximately 65 cm of 1.3cm/schedule-40 PVC sprinkler pipe.
1) Cut the tubing into the five sections above 2) Place a 5 cent coin over one end of each pipe and cover each with a square piece of duct tape. 3) Wrap duct tape around the set as shown below. Blow across the top of each pipe — it's just like blowing on a soda bottle. You can also take thinner bamboo sticks and lash the pan pipes together |
