Wow! That sounds just like an original. I tried that quite a few years ago on a friends and it sounded awful. He told me it sounded like a rhinoceros in heat looking for a place to stick his horn. Don’t think I’ll try again.

It’s good for you Allan man down Under. It’s like a Whoopi cushion running out of Whoopy.

Yup Unc. I break wind often. And they say, “if your making a farting sound, you’re doing it right”.

Nice collection Andries. I have a large number as well. I’ve made them for all my relatives, friends and neighbors too. They are like Zukes. Prolific. I have a real Australian indigenous maker’s Didge. I’ll dig our my horde soon to show. I made a lot of clay didges. They sound like ship’s horns.

You are a windy old fart!   A slider that changes the key.  Hunh.  I think I get how to do that.   I kind of hope to make one in G first.

I can help you get the circular breathing. It took me a long time but I can do it now once I get my lip back and warm up. It took me a year and a half. But circular’s not necessary to make music. When I started I blew on any tube I could find. Vacuumed cleaner extension pipes. Christmas wrap cardboard tubes, old used plumbing. It all helps you figure it out. Playing helped me quit smoking cigarettes. And got me into swimming under water. I got my breath back. I could sing again. I could make it through a song without coughing. I highly recommend didgin Kale. It’s good :*)

That is super cool. The slider aspect is nice because you an play it in any key, even microtonal. I'm still working to get the circular breathing technique figured out. It's not easy. Anyway... thanks for sharing buddy.
