GruffaloGriff 1,851 Posted April 27, 2016 Report Share Posted April 27, 2016 Got to be back to Gruffalo Griff I reckon Living in a particularly wind swept part of the country, any bought wind chimes would disintegrate fairly quickly. I have toyed with the idea of making an industrial grade one but think the racket would drive me loopy. This gong is the closest thing i have made to a wind chime. An old dive bottle with the bottom cut off and a bit of galvanized steel water pipe all threaded together on a bit of rope and hung from an old section of scaffold at the side of my shed. Visitors or my good lady give it a rattle on the way to the shed door, makes a good sound. If you had a longer bit of pipe in the middle or something flappy a bit of board or the like on the end of the rope it would make a good wind chime. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
