3-Cool! Truly innovative and, dare I say it, 'drifts' back to the roots of creating your own from what you have available. It Rocks too!

thanks Jeff and Darren...mmm with the bottle I thought maybe it went on too long, but didn't want to stop the shot before it had stopped moving, glad you found it relaxing : -)

I did not expect that sound to come out of that.That was very cool.If you think about the stuff people throw away that could be converted to an instrument,but of course,you have to have the imagination.You have that.Congratulations on a great build.
