Longest video in the world! I wanted to run the whole process start to finish though so you know theres no big secrets in cone spinning, its pretty straight forward stuff. Just be careful!

Thanks so much for this.  It really takes a lot of the mystery out of the how resonators are made.  Nice work!

Yup, you gotta have the chickens.

If you cant find a real one, I suggest getting a a chicken type toy, or failing that, a chicken calander may suffice.

Good luck!

I want to try this myself. I have a lathe, but no chickens. Are they ABSOLUTELY necessary?

Good on you Steve!
They are great for practicing on, though useless as reso cones - they sound totally numb - but if you can spin aluminium foil, I reckon you can spin anything!

Lol, thanks 'Banjo Ant'... though the re-using of the nails is to ensure that every single aspect of the CBG production process uses found / used / second hand materials, thus ensuring that maximum mojo is retained within :o)

genius. no other word for it ben. Personal highlight for me -
"I reuse the nails of course" - Eco-warrior or just a northern/adopted-scot tightarse? You decide.

You would be amazed how a fastly spinning bit of metal can make you so much more careful DG.....
